Abstract

The effect of next-nearest-neighbor (nnn) hopping on the antiferromagnetism and vortex charges for doped high-temperature superconductors is investigated by numerically solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations based on a model Hamiltonian with competing antiferromagnetic (AFM) and d-wave superconductivity interactions. We find that the AFM order magnitude in the vortex core is first enhanced and then suppressed for an optimally doped sample, accompanied with vortex charge sign change from positive to negative when the relative nnn hopping strength increases from 0 to 0.4. It is also found that positive vortex charges can be observed at a large nnn hopping strength even though the AFM order remains strong for an underdoped sample. In addition, transitions between isotropic two-dimensional and one-dimensional structures of vortex charge and spin-density wave orders may occur by tuning the nnn hopping strength.
