Pressure dependence of the energy gap anisotropy in aluminum

  • 1. McMaster Univ., Hamilton, Ontario (Canada). Dept. of Physics

Description

We have calculated the superconducting energy gap for a large number of points on the irreducible (1/48)th of the Fermi surface of pure single-crystal aluminum both at zero and finite pressure. It is found that the energy gap anisotropy in aluminum increases with increasing pressure.
