Abstract

The shape resonance of the superconducting gap for a 2D electron gas in a superlattice of quantum stripes with a finite 1 D periodic potential barrier is studied when the Fermi level is tuned near the bottom of the third superlattice subband. The maximumT c . appears at a critical charge densityT c . Forp > p c (in the underdoped regime) the chemical potential is tuned in a pseudogap region characterized by a decrease of the density of states and an opening of the partial gap at the Fermi surface. The pseudogap is closed forp< p c (in the overdoped regime).
