A Modulated Electron Lattice (MEL) Criterion for Metallic Superconductivity
Jaehwahn Kim, Davis A. Rens, Waqas Khalid +1
A central unresolved question in the theory of superconductivity is why only a small subset of metallic elements exhibit a superconducting state, whereas many others remain strictl…

Short-Range Modulated Electron Lattice and d-Wave Superconductivity in Cuprates: A Phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau Framework
Jaehwahn Kim, Davis A. Rens, Waqas Khalid +1
We develop a phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau (GL) framework for high- cuprates in which a short-range modulation of the electronic charge density couples to a -wave superc…
