Abstract: | The Eliashberg integral equations are investigated to determine the effect of low frequency phonons on the superconducting transition temperature Tc. It is found that phonons of frequency less than Tc are repulsive (diminish Tc) while phonons of higher frequency have a diminished attraction unless the frequency is substantially above Tc. Various implications are discussed concerning observed values of Tc and predicted mechanisms for raising Tc. |
