Temperature dependent gap anisotropy from interlayer tunneling
A recent experiment by Ma and collaborators shows that the gap anisotropy in Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca 1 Cu 2 O 8+x is strongly temperature dependent. In particular , the superconducting gap along the Γ − M direction shows a weaker temperature dependence than the gap along the Γ − X direction which decreases rapidly with temperature. We explain this novel feature as a natural consequence of the interlayer t...
متن کاملSuperconducting Gap within a Modified Interlayer Tunneling Model
A modified version of the interlayer tunneling model, including interlayer single particle hopping (ISPH), is considered as a phenomenological model to describe cuprate superconductors. The effective ISPH (teff ⊥ ) is taken along with a probability factor P , that involves the normal state pseudogap (Eg). This makes t eff ⊥ to mimic experimental observations that, ISPH is small in the underdope...
متن کاملSpin Gap and Superconductivity in the Interlayer Pair Tunneling Model
A simple interlayer pair tunneling model is solved exactly. We find that in the normal state the spin-12 particle and hole excitations are gapped. But the state is an unusual metal, characterized by novel fermionic, spin-zero and charge ±2e gapless excitations that exist about new type of Fermi surfaces. The model is consistent with a number of unusual properties of underdoped cuprates. Superco...
متن کاملImpurity states and interlayer tunneling in high temperature superconductors.
We argue that the scanning tunneling microscope (STM) images of resonant states generated by doping Zn or Ni impurities into Cu-O planes of BSCCO are the result of quantum interference of the impurity signal coming from several distinct paths. The impurity image seen on the surface is greatly affected by interlayer tunneling matrix elements. We find that the optimal tunneling path between the S...
متن کاملTemperature-dependent third cumulant of tunneling noise.
Poisson statistics predicts that the shot noise in a tunnel junction has a temperature independent third cumulant e(2)I, determined solely by the mean current I. Experimental data, however, show a puzzling temperature dependence. We demonstrate theoretically that the third cumulant becomes strongly temperature dependent and may even change sign as a result of feedback from the electromagnetic e...
