Abstract

The values of the thermodynamic parameters of the superconducting state induced by the electron–phonon interaction in the B2C sheet have been determined. It has been found that the critical temperature (TC) can change in the range from 20.4K to 13K for the Coulomb pseudopotential (μ⋆) ranging from 0.1 to 0.2. Generalization of the results for the atomic layer demonstrated that the maximum value of TC is equal to 25K. Next for the B2C sheet, the order parameter (Δ), the thermodynamic critical field (HC), and the specific heat for the superconducting (CS) state and the normal (CN) state have been calculated. The obtained results show that the dimensionless thermodynamic ratios, RΔ≡2Δ(0)/kBTC, RH≡TCCN(TC)/HC2(0), and RC≡(CS(TC)−CN(TC))/CN(TC), deviate from the predictions of the classical BCS theory. In particular RΔ(μ⋆)∈〈3.87,3.79〉, RH(μ⋆)∈〈0.155,0.157〉, and RC(μ⋆)∈〈1.67,1.62〉. The numerical calculations have been conducted in the framework of the Eliashberg formalism.
