A Possible Mechanism for Pseudo-Gap in Cuprates
arXiv:cond-mat/9612184
Abstract
The electron spectrum in the normal phase of cuprates is analyzed in terms of the boson-fermion model. It is argued that the existence of the uncondensed pairs and the quasi-two-dimensional nature of the crystal structure are responsible for the pseudo-gap above T_C observed recently.
