Resistivity saturation is observed in many metallic systems with a large resistivity, i.e., when the resistivity has reached a critical value, its further increase with temperature is substantially reduced. This typically happens when the…
We demonstrate that the resistivity data of a number of high Tc cuprates, in particular La(2-x)SrxCuO4, are consistent with resistivity saturation, although the Ioffe-Regel condition is strongly violated. By using the f-sum rule together…
We present a microscopic model for systems showing resistivity saturation. An essentially exact quantum Monte-Carlo calculation demonstrates that the model describes saturation. We give a simple explanation for saturation, using charge…
Many metals display resistivity saturation - a substantial decrease in the slope of the resistivity as a function of temperature, that occurs when the electron scattering rate $\tau^{-1}$ becomes comparable to the Fermi energy $E_F/\hbar$…
Resistivity of metals is commonly observed either to 'escalate' beyond the Ioffe-Regel limit (mean free path l equal to lattice constant a) or to 'saturate' at this point. It is argued that neither behavior is well-understood, and that…
We report the observation of resistivity saturation in lightly doped ($x\sim 0.10)$ as-grown samples of the electron-doped cuprate La$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_4$ (LCCO). The saturation occurs at resistivity values roughly consistent with the…
The electron dynamics in metals are usually well described by the semiclassical approximation for long-lived quasiparticles. However, in some metals, the scattering rate of the electrons at elevated temperatures becomes comparable to the…
We consider clean metals, at finite temperature, in which the inelastic rate, $\hbar/ \tau_{ee}$, can become of the order of, or larger, than the band splitting energy. We show that in suchsystems, contrary to the common knowledge, the…
We use the dynamical mean field method to study the high-temperature resistivity of electrons strongly coupled to phonons. The results reproduce the qualtiative behavior of the temperature and disorder dependence of the resistivity of the…
We report results on electronic transport properties of liquid Fe-S alloys at conditions of planetary cores, computed by first-principle techniques in the Kubo-Greenwood formalism. We describe a combined effect of resistivity saturation due…
We present the results of electrical transport measurements of La$_{1.85}$Sr$_{0.15}$Cu$_{1-y}$Ni$_{y}$O$_{4}$ thin single-crystal films at magnetic fields up to 9 T. Adding Ni impurity with strong Coulomb scattering potential to slightly…
Resistivities of heavy-fermion insulators typically saturate below a characteristic temperature $T^*$. For some, metallic surface states, potentially from a non-trivial bulk topology, are a likely source of residual conduction. Here, we…
It is shown that a strong intraplanar incoherent scattering can effectively block the interplanar coherent tunneling between the weakly coupled planes of the highly anisotropic but clean (intrinsic) materials such as the optimally doped…
The absence of resistivity saturation in many strongly correlated metals, including the high-temperature superconductors, is critically examined from the viewpoint of optical conductivity measurements. Coherent quasiparticle conductivity,…
We show that the resistivity in each phase of the High-Tc cuprates is a special case of a general expression derived from the Kubo formula. We obtain, in particular, the T-linear behavior in the strange metal (SM) and upper pseudogap (PG)…
The optical conductivity $\sigma(\omega)$ and the d.c. resistivity $\rho(T)$ within the extended t-J model on a square lattice, as relevant to high-$T_c$ cuprates, are reinvestigated using the exact-diagonalization method for small systems,…
High temperature superconductivity in doped Mott insulators such as the cuprates contradicts the conventional wisdom that electron repulsion is detrimental to superconductivity. Because doped fullerene conductors are also strongly…
Apparently, some form of local superconducting pairing persists to temperatures well above the maximum observed $T_c$ in underdoped cuprates, \textit{i.e.} $T_c$ is suppressed due to the small phase stiffness. With this in mind, we consider…
I present a selection of experimental results on metallic cuprates, both above the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ (often called the strange metal state) and in the superconducting state. It highlights this still poorly…
We have measured the resistivity of PrFeAsO$_{1-x}$F$_y$ samples over a wide range of temperature in order to elucidate the role of electron-phonon interaction on normal- and superconducting-state properties. The linear T dependence of…
