This was analyzed by the strong-coupling-limit BCS Tc=(4/b)ΘD*exp(-1/λ*)(1-exp(-2/λ*))-1=(4/b)ρ1/3ΘDexp(-1/Aλ)(1-exp(-2/Aλ))-1 with b≥3.5. Effective parameterts, ΘD*=ρ1/3ΘD, λ*≡Aλ=A(N(0)Ve-phonon), A≡N(0)*/N(0)=ρ1/3/(1-ρ4) from N(0)*∝m*n1/3, m*=m/(1-ρ4) [2] are given.
~~Here, n=ρntot, 0<ρ=n/ntot<1 of band-filling factor, ntot of the number of atoms in the measurement region are defined in an inhomogeneous system such as compounds with metal and insulator phases[2]. m* is the effective mass obtained from the correlation strength in the Brinkman-Rice(BR) picture.
Moreover, with increasing pressure, n, ρ, Tc increase by insulator-metal transition, which is caused by the extension of the metal region (percolation). [1] Nature586(2020)373(Fig.1c). [2] arXiv/1710.07754.
