High temperature superconductors have in common that they consist of parallel planes of copper oxide separated by layers whose composition can vary. Being ceramics, the cuprate superconductors are poor conductors above the transition…
In underdoped cuprates, T_c is thought to be determined by Cooper pair phase fluctuations because of the small superfluid density n_s. Experimentally, T_c is found to scale with n_s. The fluctuation-exchange approximation (FLEX) in its…

In conventional metal superconductors such as aluminum, the large number of weakly bounded Cooper pairs become phase coherent as soon as they start to form. The cuprate high critical temperature ($T_c$) superconductors, in contrast, belong…
