Cuprates exhibit exceptionally strong superconductivity. To understand why, it is essential to
elucidate the nature of the electronic interactions that cause pairing. Superconductivity …

Although the vast majority of high-T c cuprate superconductors are hole-doped, a small
family of electron-doped compounds exists. Underinvestigated until recently, there has been …

The perfectly linear temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity observed as T→ 0 in
a variety of metals close to a quantum critical point,,–is a major puzzle of condensed-matter …

The three central phenomena of cuprate (copper oxide) superconductors are linked by a
common do** level p*—at which the enigmatic pseudogap phase ends and the resistivity …

A variety of 'strange metals' exhibit resistivity that decreases linearly with temperature as the
temperature decreases to zero,–, in contrast to conventional metals where resistivity …

Inelastic light scattering is an intensively used tool in the study of electronic properties of
solids. Triggered by the discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in the cuprates and …

The origin of the exceptionally strong superconductivity of cuprates remains a subject of
debate after more than two decades of investigation. Here we follow a new lead: The onset …

Upon introducing charge carriers into the copper–oxygen sheets of the enigmatic lamellar
cuprates, the ground state evolves from an insulator to a superconductor and eventually to a …

What kind of information on the electrons' organisation in solids is yielded by measuring
their thermoelectric response? Fundamentals of Thermoelectricity gives an account of our …

The origin of high-temperature superconductivity in copper oxides and the nature of the
'normal'state above the critical temperature are widely debated,,. In underdoped copper …
