Finite-range effect in the two-dimensional density-induced BCS–BEC crossover

Abstract

We theoretically investigate the Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer (BCS) to Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) crossover in a two-dimensional Fermi gas with the finite-range interaction by using the Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov theory. Expanding the scattering phase shift in terms of the scattering length and effective range, we discuss the effect of the finite-range interaction on the pairing and thermodynamic properties. By solving the gap equation and the number equation self-consistently, we numerically calculate the effective-range dependence of the pairing gap, chemical potential, and pair size throughout the BCS–BEC crossover. Our results would be useful for further understanding of low-dimensional many-body problems.
