Electron trimer states in conventional superconductors

We expand the Cooper problem by including a third electron in an otherwise empty band. We demonstrate the formation of a trimer state of two electrons above the Fermi sea and the third electron, for sufficiently strong interband attractive interaction. We show that the critical interaction strength...
