摘要
The electronic part of the electron-phonon coupling, lambda, in pure and Nb-doped SrTiO3 has been calculated using the LMTO method. Supercells and the virtual crystal approximation has been used to treat the cases with dilute Nb-doping. It is found that the long-range part of the coupling is only weakly screened for low doping, when the material is close to be insulating. This makes the low-q part of lambda large and can explain the appearance of superconductivity for low Nb concentration.
