摘要
The attractive Hubbard model has become a model readily realizable with ultracold atoms on optical lattices. However, the superconducting (superfluid) critical temperatures T c 's are still somewhat smaller than the lowest temperatures achieved in experiments. Here, we consider two possible routes, generically called layering, to increase T c : a bilayer and a simple cubic lattice, both with tunable hopping tz between attractive Hubbard planes. We have performed minus-sign-free determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations to calculate response functions such as pairing correlation functions, uniform spin susceptibility, and double occupancy, through which we map out some physical properties. We have found that by a judicious choice of fillings and intensity of on-site attraction, a bilayer can exhibit T c 's between 1.5 and 1.7 times those of the single layer; for the simple-cubic lattice the enhancement can be 30% larger than the maximum for the single layer. We also check the accuracy of both a BCS-like estimate for Tc in the attractive Hubbard model as well as of an upper bound for Tc based on the superfluid density.
