Critical temperature of a two-band superconductor with account for interband pairing

Abstract

Dependence of the critical temperature of a superconductor with two overlapping conduction bands on the band filling is considered. The electrons are assumed to have parabolic dispersion laws and to interact within a layer near the Fermi surface. For superconductors with interband Cooper pairing the superconducting transition temperature as a function of the carrier density is nonmonotonic and resembles the analogous dependence in high-temperature superconductors.
