Field-induced thermal metal-to-insulator transition in underdoped LSCO
The transport of heat and charge in cuprates was measured in undoped and heavily-underdoped single crystal La2−xSrxCuO4+δ (LSCO). In underdoped LSCO, the thermal conductivity is found to decrease with increasing magnetic field in the T → 0 limit, in striking contrast to the increase observed in all superconductors, including cuprates at higher doping. The suppression of superconductivity with m...
متن کاملMetal–Insulator Transition in Zinc-Doped LaSrCuO
The magnetotransport in the vicinity of the metal–insulator transition in La1.85Sr0.15CuxZn1−xO4 is studied in the mK temperature range. Both longitudinal and transverse magnetoresistance are negative indicating the importance of spin effects. The magnitude of transverse magnetoresistance is larger than the magnitude of longitudinal magnetoresistance, indicating the absence of positive orbital ...
متن کاملCuprates La2−xSrxCuO4 Studied by Angle-resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy
We have performed a systematic angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) study of the high-Tc cuprates La2−xSrxCuO4, ranging from the underdoped insulator to the superconductor to the overdoped metal. We have revealed a systematic doping evolution of the band dispersions and (underlying) Fermi surfaces, pseudogap and quasi-particle features under the influence of strong electron-electro...
متن کاملMagnetic-Field Induced Superconductor-Insulator Transition in the La2-xSrxCuO4 System.
The magnetoresistance of underdoped La22xSrxCuO films with x 0.048 and 0.051 is studied in magnetic fields up to 8.5 T and at temperatures down to 30 mK. The results indicate that the magnetic-field induced superconductor-insulator (SI) transition is qualitatively different from the reentrant transition described for indium oxide and interpreted as leading to a “bosonic insulator” phase. The ...
متن کاملLow-temperature electronic heat transport in La2-xSrxCuO4 single crystals: unusual low-energy physics in the normal and superconducting states.
The thermal conductivity kappa is measured in a series of La2-xSrxCuO4 (0 < or = x < or = 0.22) single crystals down to 90 mK to elucidate the evolution of the residual electronic thermal conductivity kappa(res), which probes the extended quasiparticle states in the d-wave gap. We found that kappa(res)/T grows smoothly, except for a 1/8 anomaly, above x approximately 0.05, and shows no disconti...
