Superlight bipolarons and a checkerboard d-wave condensate in cuprates | A. S. Alexandrov

25 Jun 2003 | Journal: | Journal of Superconductivity: Incorporating Novel Magnetism, 17(1), 2004, pp 53-57 | Subject: | Superconductivity; Strongly Correlated Electrons | cond-mat.supr-con cond-mat.str-el | Abstract: | The seminal work by Bardeen, Cooper and Schrieffer taken further by Eliashberg to the intermediate coupling solved the problem of conventional superconductors about half a century ago. The Froehlich and Jahn-Teller electron-phonon interactions were identified as an essential piece of physics in all novel superconductors. The BCS theory provides a qualitatively correct description of some of them like magnesium diborade and doped fullerenes (if the polaron formation is taken into account). However, cuprates remain a problem. Here I show that the bipolaron extension of the BCS theory to the strong-coupling regime could be a solution. Low-energy physics in this regime is that of small ’superlight’ bipolarons, which are real-space mobile bosonic pairs dressed by phonons. The symmetry and space modulations of the order parameter are explained in the framework of the bipolaron theory. A d-wave Bose-Einstein condensate of bipolarons reveals itself as a checkerboard modulation of the hole density and of the gap below Tc. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0306649 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
