Breakdown of universal transport in correlated d-wave superconductors
arXiv:0711.2294 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.100.257003
Abstract
The prediction and observation of low-temperature universal thermal conductivity in cuprates has served as a keystone of theoretical approaches to the superconducting state, but recent measurements on underdoped samples show strong violations of this apparently fundamental property of d-wave nodal quasiparticles. Here, we show that the breakdown of universality may be understood as the consequence of disorder-induced magnetic states in the presence of increasing antiferromagnetic correlations in the underdoped state, even as these same correlations protect the nodal low-energy density of states in agreement with recent scanning tunneling experiments.
