We present the first ab-initio band-theory-based description of spin-compensated polarons (known as Zhang-Rice singlets) in a hole-doped cuprate, specifically one-dimensional Ca_{2+x} Y_{2-x} Cu_5 O_10. Zhang-Rice singlets are many-particle…

The optical conductivity of the CuO$_3$-chains, a subsystem of the 1-2-3 materials, is dominated by a broad peak in the mid-infrared ($\omega \approx 0.2$eV), and a slowly falling high-frequency tail. The 1D $t$-$J$-model is proposed as the…
The pseudogap metal phase of the hole-doped cuprate superconductors has two seemingly unrelated characteristics: a gap in the electronic spectrum in the `anti-nodal' region of the square lattice Brillouin zone, and discrete broken…
This paper establishes and tests procedures which can determine the electron energy gap of the high-temperature superconductors using the $t\!-\!J$ model with spinon and holon quasiparticles obeying fractional statistics. A simpler problem…
