In this paper, an attempt is made to elucidate some aspects of the charge transport in a single CuO_2 plane. During the doping process, the simultaneously introduced oxygen holes as well as the electrons create two components plasma.…
Hole doping of superconducting cuprates generates lattice defects of O atoms. At and beyond closing of the pseudogap, p =< p*, they form a highly symmetric superlattice. Umklapp processes involving reciprocal lattice vectors associated with…
A model is proposed such that quasi-particles (electrons or holes) residing in the CuO2 planes of cuprates may interact leading to metallic or superconducting behaviors. The metallic phase is obtained when the quasi-particles are treated as…
Doped holes in cuprates reside pairwise at lattice-defect O atoms but at different sites in the two cuprate families. In the Sr-doped lanthanum cuprates, the O atoms occupy anion lattice sites and spread due to Coulomb repulsion (relative…
We study the effect of Coulomb repulsion between oxygen holes on the London penetration depth $\lambda$ based on the concept of spin-polaron nature of Fermi quasiparticles in cuprates superconductors. It is shown that for the generally…

The pressure and internal energy of an ultracold plasma in a state of quasi-equilibrium are evaluated using classical molecular dynamics simulations. Coulomb collapse is avoided by modeling electron-ion interactions using an attractive…

In the cuprate superconductor $YBa_2Cu_3O_{6+x}$, hole doping in the $CuO_2$ layers is controlled by both oxygen content and the degree of oxygen-ordering. At the composition $\rm YBa_2Cu_3O_{6.35}$, the ordering can occur at room…

We investigate the nature of the electronic ground state and electron-lattice couplings for doped chains of CuO_4 plaquettes or CuO_6 octahedra. The undoped configuration implies here Cu 3d^9 and O 2p^6 formal valence states. The results of…
Doping $La_2CuO_{4}$ with alkaline-earth, $Ae= Sr,Ba$ generates holes in $La_{2-y-x}Ln_yAe_xCuO_{4}$ ($Ln =$ $Nd,Eu$). A small fraction of the holes, $\check{p} \le $ $0.02$, suppresses 3D-AFM. The rest resides as double holes at $O$ atoms…
The existing theory about the cuprate superconductor bases on band theory, almost all neglects the position difference of Cu-O ions on CuO2 plane, and assumes that the charge on ions are averagely distributed. Considering that the nature of…

In strongly correlated systems the strength of Coulomb interactions between electrons, relative to their kinetic energy, plays a central role in determining their emergent quantum mechanical phases. We perform resonant x-ray scattering on…
An atomic gas subject to a commensurate periodic potential generated by an optical lattice undergoes a superfluid--Mott insulator transition. Confining a strongly interacting gas to one dimension generates an instability where an arbitrary…
High $T_c$ cuprate superconductors are characterized by two robust features: their strong electronic correlations and their intrinsic dynamical local lattice instabilities. Focusing on exclusively that latter, we picture their parent state…
In-plane, inter-carrier correlations in hole doped cuprates are investigated by ab initio multiconfiguration calculations. The dressed carriers display features that are reminiscent of both Zhang-Rice (ZR) CuO4 singlet states and…
