The Anderson prescription for surfaces and impurities
K. Tanaka, F. Marsiglio
Abstract
We test the Anderson prescription [1], a BCS formalism for describing superconductivity in inhomogeneous systems, and compare results with those obtained from the Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalism, using the attractive Hubbard model with surfaces and nonmagnetic impurities. The Anderson approach captures the essential features of the spatial variation of the gap parameter and electron density around a surface or an impurity over a wide range of parameters. It breaks down, however, in the strong-coupling regime for a weak impurity potential. [1] P. W. Anderson, J. Phys. Chem. Solids 11, 26 (1959).
