The neutron resonance in the cuprates and its effect on fermionic excitations
arXiv:cond-mat/0112126 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.89.177002
Abstract
We argue that the exciton scenario for the magnetic resonance in the cuprate superconductors yields a small spectral weight of the resonance, in agreement with experiment. We show that the small weight is related to its concentration in a small region of momentum and energy. Despite this, we find that a large fermionic self-energy can indeed be generated by a resonance with such properties, i.e., the scattering from the resonance substantially affects the electronic properties of the cuprates below $T_c$.
