In classical superconductors Cooper-pair formation and phase coherence occur simultaneously as the temperature is lowered below Tc. In high-temperature superconductors (HTSC), on the other hand, the small superfluid density and low…
A phase diagram for a 2D metal with variable carrier density has been derived. It consists of a normal phase, where the order parameter is absent; a so-called ``abnormal normal'' phase where this parameter is also absent but the mean number…
The phase diagram associated with the high Tc superconductors is complicated by an array of different ground states. The parent material represents an antiferromagnetic insulator but with doping superconductivity becomes possible with…
