A mechanism for quantum-critical Planckian metal phase in high-temperature cuprate superconductors

Yung-Yeh Chang, Khoe Van Nguyen, Kim Remund +1

The mysterious metallic phase showing perfect $T$-linear resistivity and a universal scattering rate $1/\tau ={\alpha }_P{k}_{B}T/\hslash$ with a universal prefactor ${\alpha }_P\sim 1$ and logarithmic…
