High temperature superconductivity: Cooper pairs in trap    [PDF]

Wei Ruan

The tremendous efforts to unveil high temperature superconductivity (HTSC) have been devoted to the search of the mechanism underlying Cooper pairs which, however, remains a mysterious subject of vigorous debate, let alone many other mysteries like the pseudogap state, the peculiar Homes law, the unnegligible electron-phonon interaction, the stripe, the universal nodal Fermi velocity, etc. Most of subsequent works either bring in more controversies or swell the list of mysteries. Here I tentatively propose a whole new perspective on the basis of low-dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensation (LDBEC), which possibly makes lots of those mysteries correlated and understood in single picture.
