Spin-gap effect on resistivity in the t-J model

Abstract

We calculate the spin-gap effect on dc resistivity in the t-J model of high-$T_{\mathrm{c}}$ cuprates by using the Ginzburg-Landau theory coupled with a gauge field as its effective field theory to get $\rho (T)\propto T\{1-c(T^{\ast }-T{)}^d\}$, where $T^{\ast }$ is the spin-gap onset temperature. By taking the compactness of massive gauge field into account, the exponent $d$ deviates from its mean-field value 1/2 and becomes a nonuniversal $T$-dependent quantity, which improves the correspondence with the experiments.
