Recent scanning tunneling microscopy on BSCCO 2212 has revealed a substantial spatial supermodulation of the energy gap in the superconducting state. We propose that this gap modulation is due to the superlattice modulations of the atoms in…
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements have observed modulations in the density of states (DOS) of a number of high-T$_c$ cuprates. These modulations have been interpreted in terms of electron-boson coupling analogous to the…
