Distribution of spectral weight in a system with disordered stripes
arXiv:cond-mat/0109244 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.65.184501
Abstract
The ``band-structure'' of a disordered stripe array is computed and compared, at a qualitative level, to angle resolved photoemission experiments on the cuprate high temperature superconductors. The low-energy states are found to be strongly localized transverse to the stripe direction, so the electron dynamics is strictly one-dimensional (along the stripe). Despite this, aspects of the two dimensional band-structure Fermi surface are still vividly apparent.
