Hypothesis of two-dimensional stripe arrangement and its implications for the superconductivity in high-Tc cuprates | Boris V. Fine

21 Aug 2003 | Journal: | Phys. Rev. B 70, 224508 (2004) | Subject: | Superconductivity; Strongly Correlated Electrons | cond-mat.supr-con cond-mat.str-el | Abstract: | The hypothesis that holes doped into high-Tc cuprate superconductors organize themselves in two-dimensional (2D) array of diagonal stripes is discussed, and, on the basis of this hypothesis, a new microscopic model of superconductivity is proposed and solved. The model describes two kinds of hole states localized either inside the stripes or in the antiferromagnetic domains between the stripes. The characteristic energy difference between these two kinds of states is identified with the pseudogap. The superconducting (SC) order parameter predicted by the model has two components, whose phases exhibit a complex dependence on the the center-of-mass coordinate. The model predictions for the tunneling characteristics and for the dependence of the critical temperature on the superfluid density show good quantitative agreement with a number of experiments. The model, in particular, predicts that the SC peaks in the tunneling spectra are asymmetric, only when the ratio of the SC gap to the critical temperature is greater than 4. It is also proposed that, at least in some high-Tc cuprates, there exist two different superconducting states corresponding to the same doping concentration and the same critical temperature. Finally, the checkerboard pattern in the local density of states observed by scanning tunneling microscopy in Bi-2212 is interpreted as coming from the states localized around the centers of stripe elements forming the 2D superstructure. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0308428 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
