Phase separation near half-filling point in superconducting compounds

Abstract

We present the model of superconducting ceramics using the single band extended Hubbard Hamiltonian. We investigate the simultaneous presence of antiferromagnetism (AF) and d-wave superconductivity (SC) in the coherent potential (CP) approximation applied to the on-site Coulomb repulsion $U$. We consider the hopping interaction, $\Delta t$, the inter-site charge-charge interaction, $V$, (creating SC), and the single site Hund's type exchange interaction, $F_{in}$, (creating AF). The influence of these interactions on the separation of superconducting and antiferromagnetic phases near the half-filling point is investigated. Results are compared with the experimental data for YBaCuO and NdCeCuO compounds.
