Elektronische Struktur von Kupratsupraleitern in der Nähe von Grundzustand.
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
We have studied the electronic structure of the main representatives of the cuprate family of high-temperature superconductors as well as of other related superconductors at very low temperatures. We have obtained many new and surprising results which put strong constraints on existing theories of superconductivity. Topology of the Fermi surface in BSCCO seems to define the pseudogap phase in a way that after some critical doping level the antibonding sheet of the former becomes gapless. This is confirmed by the Raman experiments on the same samples. The symmetry and structure of the order parameter, long time considered to be purely of d-wave character, may turn out to deviate from this paradigm. Our ultra-high resolution measurements near the „nodal“ points in BSCCO show that a small superconducting gap of the order of 1-2 meV is present in a finite range of k-values, thus implying the absence of the real nodes in the gap function. Nodeless behavior is also confirmed in iron-based superconductors in the whole 3D k-space and comparison implies a close relationship between the underlying mechanisms in both classes of materials. Influence of nematicity on the electronic structure has been carefully studied in ironbased superconductors. Surprisingly, we found the evidence for the diagonal nematic order also in Hg-based cuprates, which is in agreement with other recent report based on thermodynamic measurements. At the same time, the role of nematic fluctuations in the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity itself is most likely a secondary one. As for the relationship between the superconductivity and charge-density waves, we argue that it is particular fermiology of the material which is responsible for each phenomenon thus explaining their persistent proximity as phases. ARPES experiments carried out during the project led to the invention of a new type of electron spectrometer which allows the fastest high-resolution mapping of the Fermi surface, in particular of the high-temperature superconducting cuprates. First measurements of the Fermi surface of BSCCO demonstrate the potential of this novel approach.
