Phase Fluctuations and Pseudogap Phenomena
Vadim M. Loktev, Rachel M. Quick, Sergei G. Sharapov
This article reviews the current status of precursor superconducting phase fluctuations as a possible mechanism for pseudogap formation in high-temperature superconductors. In part…
Finite Temperature Time-Dependent Effective Theory for the Phase Field in two-dimensional d-wave Neutral Superconductor
Sergei G. Sharapov, Hans Beck, Vadim M. Loktev
We derive finite temperature time-dependent effective actions for the phase of the pairing field, which are appropriate for a 2D electron system with both non-retarded d- and s-wav…
Magnetostriction and magnetoelastic domains in antiferromagnets
Helen Gomonay, Vadim Loktev
The problem of the observable equilibrium domain structure in pure antiferromagnets (and other thermoelastics) is investigated with the use of continuous elasticity theory. It is s…
Quantum Phase Fluctuations Responsible for Pseudogap
V. P. Gusynin, V. M. Loktev, R. M. Quick +1
The effect of ordering field phase fluctuations on the normal and superconducting properties of a simple 2D model with a local four-fermion attraction is studied. Neglecting the co…
