Spinon-Holon binding in model

arXiv:cond-mat/0408374 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.71.172509

Abstract

Using a phenomenological model, we discuss the consequences of spinon-holon binding in the U(1) slave-boson approach to model. Within a small ( hole concentration) expansion, we show that spinon-holon binding produces a pseudo-gap normal state with a segmented Fermi surface and the superconducting state is formed by opening an "additional" d-wave gap on the segmented Fermi surface. The d-wave gap merge with the pseudo-gap smoothly as temperature . The quasi-particles in the superconducting state are coupled to external electromagnetic field with a coupling constant of order where , depending on the strength of the effective spinon-holon binding potential.
