摘要
The recent discovery of superconductivity in the twisted bilayer graphene has stimulated numerous theoretical proposals concerning its exact gap symmetry.Among them, the d + id or p + ip-wave was believed to be the most plausible solution.Here, considering that the superconductivity emerges near a correlated insulating state and may be induced by antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations, we apply the strong-coupling Eliashberg theory with both inter-and intraband quantum critical pairing interactions and discuss the possible gap symmetry in an effective low-energy four-orbital model.Our calculations reveal a nodeless s~±-wave as the most probable candidate for the superconducting gap symmetry in the experimentally relevant parameter range.This solution is distinctly different from previous theoretical proposals.It highlights the multi-gap nature of the superconductivity and puts the twisted bilayer graphene in the same class as the iron-pnictide,electron-doped cuprate, and some heavy fermion superconductors.
