The influence of strong diagonal disorder on superconductivity in the 2D attractive-U Hubbard model at low electron density

The properties of a two-dimensional low density (n<<1) electron system with strong onsite Hubbard attraction U>W (W is the bandwidth) in the presence of a strong random potential V uniformly distributed in the range from -V to +V are considered. Electronic hoppings only at neighboring sites on the square lattice are taken into account, thus W=8t. The calculations were carried out for a lattice of 24x24 sites with periodic boundary conditions. In the framework of the Bogoliubov - de Gennes approach we observed an appearance of inhomogeneous state of spatially separated Fermi-Bose mixture of Cooper pairs and unpaired electrons with the formation of bosonic droplets of different size in the unpaired fermionic matrix. We observed an increase in the droplet size (from individual bielectronic pairs to larger droplets and finally to the percolation cluster) when we increase the electron density at fixed values of the Hubbard attraction and random potential.
