Abstract
The c-axis resistivity,ϱ c (T, H, θ), of La1.86Sr0.14CuO4 is experimentally studied as a function of temperatureT, magnetic fieldH and angleθ betweenH andab-plane. It is argued that the experimental findings cannot be accounted for by previously considered mechanisms. By contrast; they can be explained by a phenomenological model, which is developed by replacingH in the dissipation model forH‖I‖c with the reduced fieldh = H (sin2 θ + cos2θ/γ2 1/2, where γ is the anisotropic parameter in magnetic fields. Based on this phenomenological model, it is shown that all the measuredϱ c (T, H, θ) curves could consistently map onto a single curve.
