We present an experimental review of the nature of the pseudogap in the cuprate
superconductors. Evidence from various experimental techniques points to a common …

Superconducting gap anisotropy at least an order of magnitude larger than that of the
conventional superconductors has been observed in the ab plane of Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+ …

We review concepts and effects of electron correlations in the copper-oxide
superconductors. The purpose of this article is twofold. First, we provide an overview of …

A central issue in the field of high temperature superconductivity is the nature of the normal
state. Here we review normal state transport, thermodynamic, magnetic and spectroscopic …

Anomalous spectral weight transfer at the superconducting transition of single-crystalline Bi
2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+ δ was observed by high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission …

We have carried out angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on single crystals of YBa 2
Cu 3 O 6.9. The crystals were cleaved in situ, under ultrahigh vacuum while the sample …

High-Temperature Superconductors provides an up-to-date and comprehensive review of
the properties of these fascinating materials. Much has been learned about the behavior and …

We discuss predictions of the hole-pairing mechanism of superconductivity for various
experimentally measurable properties of the high-T c oxides. The model considered …

This paper highlights the important roles played by crystal chemistry in controlling the
superconductive properties of the intergrowth structures of the copper oxides. Bond-length …

A directional solidification method for growing large single crystals in the Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O
8+ δ system is reported. Ion doping, with replacement of La for Sr and Y for Ca, as well as …
