Abstract Spin and charge fluctuations have been proposed to be the driven pairing mechanism of several unconventional superconductors, including different systems such as iron pnictides, and cuprates. The usual approach to treat these fluctuations is the zero-temperature theory of matrix-Random-Phase Approximation (matrix-RPA). Based on our previous work on the orbital- and sublattice-dependent matrix-RPA approach (taking into account long-range interactions) in magic-angle twisted bilayer (MATBG), our proposal is to apply this theory to different systems and study the robustness and consequences of the spin and charge fluctuation-driven superconductivity. We extend our previous work on MATBG using a corrected continuum model, which properly accounts for the filling dependence of the system's band structure. Also, we intend to explore our prediction of intersystem crossing superconductivity due to tuning of interaction parameters using electric gating experimental techniques. Our proposal aims to specifically studying the kagomé superconductors. Finally, we will employ a three-dimensional matrix-RPA theory to study the superconducting pairing symmetry of nickelate superconductors by comparing different non-interacting models, thereby providing a minimal low-energy model to describe these systems. | |
