Effects of thermal phase fluctuations in a 2D superconductor: an exact result for the spectral function

Superconductivity 2015-05-18 v2

Abstract

We consider the single particle spectral function for a two-dimensional clean superconductor in a regime of strong critical thermal phase fluctuations. In the limit where the maximum of the superconducting gap is much smaller than the Fermi energy we obtain an exact expression for the spectral function integrated over the momentum component perpendicular to the Fermi surface.
