Contrasting Pathways to Mott Gap Collapse in Electron and Hole Doped Cuprates
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent ARPES measurements on the electron-doped cuprate Nd2−xCexCuO4 can be interpreted in a mean field model of uniform doping of an antiferromagnet, with the Mott gap closing near optimal doping. Mode coupling calculations confirm the mean field results, while clarifying the relation between the Mott gap and shortrange magnetic order. The same calculations find that hole doped cuprates should follow a strikingly different doping dependence, involving instability toward spiral phases or stripes. Nevertheless, the magnetic order (now associated with stripes) again collapses near optimal doping.

Asymmetric features of various physical quantities in the normal and superconducting states between hole- and electron-doped cuprate high-temperature superconductors have been an issue of debate for a long time. Their exploration is very important for the understanding not only of the mechanism of high-Tc superconductivity but also of the nature of doped-Mott insulators. Presented in this rev...
متن کاملDirect theoretical evidence for weaker correlations in electron-doped and Hg-based hole-doped cuprates
Many important questions for high-Tc cuprates are closely related to the insulating nature of parent compounds. While there has been intensive discussion on this issue, all arguments rely strongly on, or are closely related to, the correlation strength of the materials. Clear understanding has been seriously hampered by the absence of a direct measure of this interaction, traditionally denoted ...
متن کاملMott gap excitations and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering in doped cuprates.
Predictions are made for the momentum- and carrier-dependent degradation of the Mott gap upon doping in high-T(c) cuprates as would be observed in Cu K-edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). The two-dimensional Hubbard model with second- and third-nearest-neighbor hopping terms has been studied by numerical exact diagonalization. Special emphasis is placed on the particle-hole asymmet...
متن کاملVisualizing the atomic-scale electronic structure of the Ca2CuO2Cl2 Mott insulator.
Although the mechanism of superconductivity in the cuprates remains elusive, it is generally agreed that at the heart of the problem is the physics of doped Mott insulators. A crucial step for solving the high temperature superconductivity puzzle is to elucidate the electronic structure of the parent compound and the behaviour of doped charge carriers. Here we use scanning tunnelling microscopy...
متن کاملBogoliubov angle in electron-doped cuprate superconductors
Within the framework of the kinetic energy driven superconducting mechanism, the momentum dependence of the Bogoliubov angle in the electron-doped cuprate superconductors is studied. By calculation of the ratio of the low energy quasiparticle spectra at positive and negative energies, it is shown that the Bogoliubov angle increases monotonically across the Fermi crossing point, suggesting a con...
