Insights from ARPES for an undoped, four-layered, two-gap high-T_c superconductor

Abstract

An undoped cuprate with apical fluorine and inner (i) and outer (o) CuO2-layers is a 60 K superconductor whose Fermi surface (FS) has large n- and p-doped sheets with the SC gap on the n-sheet twice that on the p -sheet (Y. Chen et al.). The Fermi surface is not reproduced by the LDA, but the screening must be substantially reduced due to electronic correlations, and oxygen in the o-layers must be allowed to dimple outwards. This charges the i-layers by 0.01|e|, causes an 0.4 eV Madelung-potential difference between the i and o -layers, quenches the i-o hopping, and localizes the n-sheets onto the i-layers, thus protecting their d-wave pairs from being broken by scattering on impurities in the BaF layers. The correlation-reduced screening strengthens the coupling to z-axis phonons.
