The superconducting energy gap in the hole-doped graphene beyond the Migdal's theory

In this work we analyze impact of non-adiabatic effects on the superconducting energy gap in the hole-doped graphene. By using the Eliashberg formalism beyond the Migdal’s theorem, we present that the non-adiabatic effects strongly influence the superconducting energy gap in the exemplary boron-doped graphene. In particular, the non-adiabatic effects, as represented by the first order vertex corrections to the electron-phonon interaction, supplement Coulomb depairing correlations and suppress the superconducting state. In summary, the obtained results confirm previous studies on superconductivity in two-dimensional materials and show that the corresponding superconducting phase may be notably affected by the non-adiabatic effects.
