We analyze the superconducting state and the c-axis charge dynamics of cuprates using a charged ordered bilayer superlattice model in which pairing is supported by inter-layer Coulomb energy gain. The superlattice nature of high temperature…
The pseudogap state of cuprate high-temperature superconductors has been often viewed as either a yet unknown competing order or a precursor state to superconductivity. While awaiting the resolution of the pseudogap problem in cuprates, we…
