'Conventional'superconductivity, as used in this review, refers to electron–phonon-coupled
superconducting electron pairs described by BCS theory. Unconventional superconductivity …

Tunneling spectroscopy has played a central role in the experimental verification of the
microscopic theory of superconductivity in classical superconductors. Initial attempts to apply …

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

Recent studies of the electromagnetic response of high-T c superconductors using terahertz,
infrared, and optical spectroscopies are reviewed. In combination these experimental …

A term first coined by Mott back in 1968 a “pseudogap” is the depletion of the electronic
density of states at the Fermi level, and pseudogaps have been observed in many systems …

Vortex cores in under-and overdoped Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+ δ are studied by local probe
tunneling spectroscopy. At the center of the cores, we find a gaplike structure at the Fermi …

Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy, we investigated the temperature dependence of the
quasiparticle density of states of overdoped Bi 2 Sr 2 CuO 6+ δ between 275 mK and 82 K …

Many novel superconducting compounds such as the high Tc oxides are intrinsically
inhomogeneous systems by virtue of the superconductivity being closely related to the …

Superconducting (SC) fluctuations, discovered in the late 1960s, have constituted an
important research area in superconductivity as they are manifest in a variety of phenomena …

Two contradictory phase diagrams have dominated the literature of high-T c cuprate
superconductors. Does the pseudogap line cross the superconducting T c-dome or not? To …
