Doping dependence of bose condensation energy and correlations with spectral peak intensity and superfluid weight in high Tc cuprates

Sung-Sik Lee, Sung‐Ho Suck Salk

Based on our recent holon-pair boson theory of the t-J Hamiltonian (Phys. Rev. B 64, 052501 (2001)) we report the doping dependence of the bose condensation energy, superfluid weight and spectral peak intensity. We find a universality of doping dependence in these physical quantities, by equally showing an arch shape in the variations of their magnitudes with the hole doping concentration. We find that all of these physical quantities scale well with the positive charge carrier (hole) density x, but not with the electron density 1-x for the entire range of hole doping. It is shown that the doping dependence of the condensation energy U at T = 0 K is given by the relation, $U(0) \approx αx^2 |Δ_0|^2$ with $Δ_0$, the pairing gap at 0 K and $α$, a constant.

Bosonization of Cooper pairs and novel Bose-liquid superconductivity and superfluidity in high-Tc cuprates and other exotic systems

Dzhumanov, S.

Various BCS-like pairing theories are still invariably used to describe the unusual superconducting/superfluid states and properties of condensed matters without clarifying the fermionic or bosonic nature of Cooper pairs and the relevant mechanisms of superconductivity and superfluidity. We show that the bosonization of Cooper pairs and the novel superconductivity and superfluidity resulting from the condensation of an attractive Bose gas of Cooper pairs into a superfluid state in high-Tc cuprates and other exotic systems occur under the condition εF≲2εA (where εF is the Fermi energy, εA is the energy of the effective attraction between fermions). We argue that the simple BCS criterion (i.e. formation of an energy gap on the Fermi surface) is insufficient for the occurrence of unconventional superconductivity (superfluidity) and the superconducting/superfluid transition in attractive Bose systems is more λ-like than the usual Bose–Einstein condensation. The new and specific criteria for unconventional superconductivity and superfluidity are formulated. Mean-field theory of the three- and two-dimensional superfluid Bose condensates of Cooper pairs describes reasonably well the novel superconducting states (i.e., two distinct superconducting phases below the bulk superconducting transition temperature Tc and a vortex-like state above Tc) and properties (such as λ-like transition at Tc, first-order phase transition and gapless bosonic excitations somewhat below Tc or even far below Tc) of high-Tc cuprates in full agreement with the experimental findings. The unusual superconducting/superfluid states and properties of heavy-fermion and organic compounds, Sr2RuO4, 3He, 4He and atomic Fermi gases are explained more clearly by this theory.

Universal scaling behavior of pseudogap with doping in high Tc cuprates; temperature and doping dependence of spectral intensity

Sung-Sik Lee, Sung‐Ho Suck Salk

Based on our improved SU(2) slave-boson approach (Phys. Rev. B 64, 052501(2001)) to the t-J Hamiltonian, we report a scaling behavior of pseudogap with doping and the temperature and doping dependence of spectral functions. In addition we discuss the cause of hump and quasi-particle peak in the observed spectral functions of high Tc cuprates. It is demonstrated that the sharpening of the observed quasi-particle peak below Tc is attributed to the bose condensation of holon pair. From the computed ratios of pseudogap $Δ_0$ to both the superconducting temperature Tc and the pseudogap temperature $T^*$ as a function of hole doping concentration x, we find that there exists a universal scaling of these ratios with doping, that is, the hyperbolic scaling behavior of the former, $\frac{2 Δ_0}{k_B T_c} \sim x^{-α}$ with $α\sim 2$ and near doping independence of the latter, $\frac{2 Δ_0}{k_B T^*} \approx 4 \sim 6$ are found.
