Stripe phases in high-temperature superconductors
arXiv:cond-mat/9907228 · doi:10.1073/pnas.96.16.8814
Abstract
Stripe phases are predicted and observed to occur in a class of strongly-correlated materials describable as doped antiferromagnets, of which the copper-oxide superconductors are the most prominent representative. The existence of stripe correlations necessitates the development of new principles for describing charge transport, and especially superconductivity, in these materials.
