Differential sum rule for the relaxation rate in the cuprates.
Motivated by recent experiments by Basov et al., we study the differential sum rule for the effective scattering rate 1/tau(omega). We show that, in a dirty BCS superconductor, the area under 1/tau(omega) does not change between the normal and the superconducting states. For magnetically mediated pairing, a similar result holds between Tor=T(c), while, in the pseudogap phase, 1/tau(...
متن کاملEffects of an in-plane magnetic field on c-axis sum rule and superfluid density in high-Tc cuprates
In layered cuprates, the application of an in-plane magnetic field (H) changes the c-axis optical sum rule and superfluid density ρs. For pure incoherent caxis coupling, H has no effect on either quantities but it does if an additional coherent component is present. For the coherent contribution, different characteristic variations on H and on temperature result from the constant part (t⊥) of t...
متن کاملCondensation energy in the spin-fermion model for cuprates
We compute the condensation energy in the spin-fermion model using Scalapino-White relation between the condensation energy and the change in the dynamical structure factor in the normal and the superconducting states. We show that for parameters relevant to cuprates, the extra low-frequency spectral weight associated with the resonance peak in the dynamical structure factor in a superconductor...
متن کاملQuasiparticle Excitations, Bose Condensation, and the f-Sum Rule.
In a Bose fiuid having a condensate, the density response has two components. One is associated with exciting single quasiparticles out of the condensate and the second is the usual two-body density response involving states above the condensate appearing in any fiuid. We derive the contribution of each component to the f-sum rule. The single quasiparticle contribution is proportional to the co...
متن کاملApparent violation of the conductivity sum rule in certain superconductors
It is pointed out that the Ferrell-Glover-Tinkham sum rule relating the "missing area" in the low frequency conductivity to the penetration depth can be violated in certain superconductors.. Its breakdown indicates that the effective mass of the carriers changes in entering the superconducting state, and implies a change in the conductivity at frequencies much higher than the superconducting ga...
