Abstract We consider the superconducting properties of Lieb lattice, which produces a flat-band energy spectrum in the normal state under the strong electron-electron correlation. Firstly, we show the hole-doping dependent superconducting order amplitude with various electron-electron interaction strengths in the zero-temperature limit. Secondly, we obtain the superfluid weight and Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition temperature with a lightly doping level. The large ratio between the gap-opening temperature and BKT transition temperature shows similar behavior to the pseudogap state in high-Tc superconductors. The BKT transition temperature versus doping level exhibits a dome-like shape in resemblance to the superconducting dome observed in the high-Tc superconductors. However, unlike the exponential dependence of Tc on the electron-electron interaction strength in the conventional high-Tc superconductors, the BKT transition temperature for a flat band system depends linearly on the electron-electron interaction strength. We also show the doping-dependent superconductivity on a lattice with the staggered hoping parameter in the end. Our predictions are amenable to verification in the ultracold atoms experiment and promote the understanding of the anomalous behavior of the superfluid weight in the high-Tc superconductors.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
