The spectral energy gap is an important signature that defines states of quantum matter:
insulators, density waves and superconductors have very different gap structures. The …

An energy gap is, in principle, a dominant parameter in superconductivity. However, this
view has been challenged for the case of high-T c cuprates, because anisotropic evolution …

A review of the theory describing the coexistence between d-wave superconductivity and s-
wave charge-density-waves (CDWs) is presented. The CDW gap** is identified with …

The effect of disorder in high-T c superconductors is investigated from the viewpoint of
photoinduced quasiparticle (QP) dynamics, obtained through time-resolved pump-probe …

Proponents of Complexity Science believe that the huge variety of emergent phenomena
observed throughout nature, are generated by relatively few microscopic mechanisms …

We experimentally study intrinsic tunneling and high magnetic field (up to 65 T) transport
characteristics of the single-layer cuprate Bi 2+ x Sr 2− y CuO 6+ δ, with a very low …

The theory of the stationary Josephson tunnel current I c was devised for junctions involving
superconductors partially gapped by biaxial or unidirectional charge density waves (CDWs) …

The interplay between superconductivity and the pseudogap is an important aspect of
cuprate physics. However, the nature of the pseudogap remains controversial, in part …

dc Josephson tunnel current I c between adx 2− y 2-wave superconductor and charge
density waves (CDWs)—eg a high-T c oxide and a conventional isotropic superconductor …

Carrier concentration dependence of the superconducting gap observable around the nodal
region was investigated in detail for a series of high-T c cuprate superconductors, Bi2 (Sr …
