Phase fluctuations are a key factor distinguishing nonthermal (ultrafast) and thermal phase transitions. Charge order in cuprates is characterized by short-range coherence while competing with superconductivity, and as such, it provides a…
We study a model of $n$-layer high-temperature cuprates of homologous series like HgBa_2Ca_(n-1)Cu_nO_(2+2n+\delta) to explain the dependence of the critical temperature Tc(n) on the number $n$ of Cu-O planes in the elementary cell.…
There are several ways to turn a superconductor into a normal conductor: increase the temperature, apply a high magnetic field, or run a large current. High-T$_c$ cuprate superconductors are unusual in the sense that experiments suggest…
The observation of a strong nonlinear diamagnetic signal well above T_c in several cuprate superconductors constitutes clear evidence of the persistence of local superconducting correlations.
We carry out Monte Carlo simulations of the uniformly frustrated 3d XY model as a model for vortex line fluctuations in a high Tc superconductor. A density of vortex lines of f=1/25 is considered. We find two sharp phase transitions. The…
The recently discovered universal scaling relation between the superconducting density and the transition temperature in high-temperature superconductors appears to indicate that those normal state carriers that are undergoing a…
We investigate the phase diagram of the electron-doped systems in high-Tc cuprates. We calculate the superconducting transition temperature Tc, the antiferromagnetic transition temperature TN, the NMR relaxation rate 1/T1 with the…
Previous theoretical studies on superconductivity were focused on the static states and adiabatic processes. Quantum mechanics simulations of time-dependent processes in superconductors were rarely performed previously. Here we use…
Transport properties of high transition temperature (high-Tc) superconductors have been shown to have two distinct relaxation rates. We argue that this apparent inconsistence can be resolved with an effective carrier density n linear in…
Although it is generally accepted that superconductivity (SC) is unconventional in the high- transition temperature copper oxides (high-Tc cuprates), the relative importance of phenomena such as spin and charge (stripe) order, SC…
General field theory of a fluctuating d-wave superconductor is constructed and proposed as an effective description of superconducting cuprates at low energies. The theory is used to resolve a puzzle posed by recent experiments on…
Superconductivity in the cuprates emerges from an enigmatic metallic state. There remain profound open questions regarding the universality of observed phenomena and the character of precursor fluctuations above the superconducting (SC)…
A theory of the frequency dependence of the interplane conductivity of a strongly anisotropic superconductor is presented. The form of the conductivity is shown to be a sensitive probe of the strength of quantum and thermal fluctuations of…
We report on a fully self-consistent determination of a phase transition to a superconducting state in a conserving approximation. The transition temperature calculated for a two-dimensional Hubbard model with an attractive interaction in…
Microwave absorption measurements in magnetic fields from zero up to 16 T were used to determine the temperature range of superconducting fluctuations above the superconducting critical temperature T_c in YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}. Measurements…
We show that the nodal quasiparticles have significant effect on the classical phase fluctuations in a quasi-two-dimensional d-wave superconductor. They give rise to singularities in the temperature behavior of some of the coupling…
Unconventional superconductivity typically occurs in materials in which a small change of a parameter such as bandwidth or doping leads to antiferromagnetic or Mott insulating phases. As such competing phases are approached, the properties…
We introduce and study an XY-type model of thermal and quantum phase fluctuations in a two-dimensional correlated lattice d-wave superconductor based on the QED3 effective theory of high temperature superconductors. General features of and…
Increasingly intricate phase diagrams in new classes of superconductors host fascinating interactions between superconductivity, diverse quantum phases, and quantum critical dynamics. The native superfluids, however, often exhibit much…
Based on recent experimental results for electron-doped cuprate oxides and ferromagnetic superconductors, it is shown that antiferromagnetic fluctuations always develop in the superconducting phase of both low- and high-temperature…
