Holographic Superconductor/Insulator Transition with logarithmic electromagnetic field in Gauss-Bonnet gravity

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

The behaviors of the holographic superconductors/insulator transition are studied by introducing a charged scalar field coupled with a logarithmic electromagnetic field in both the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet AdS black hole and soliton. For the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet AdS black hole, we find that: i) the larger coupling parameter of logarithmic electrodynamic field bb makes it easier for the scalar hair to be condensated; ii) the ratio of the gap frequency in conductivity ωgω_g to the critical temperature TcT_c depends on both bb and the Gauss-Bonnet constant αα; and iii) the critical exponents are independent of the bb and αα. For the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet AdS Soliton, we show that the system is the insulator phase when the chemical potential μμ is small, but there is a phase transition and the AdS soliton reaches the superconductor (or superfluid) phase when μμ larger than critical chemical potential. A special property should be noted is that the critical chemical potential is not changed by the coupling parameter bb but depends on αα.
