Abstract
Looking back on the experiments about the normal state of the high temperature superconductor (HTS), the authors point out nine important experimental results. On the basis of these results, the authors have argued that the two-dimension, two-subsystem Hamiltonian is the appropriate starting point for describing the normal state of HTS. By this Hamiltonian, using the decoupling approximation of Green’s function method by Kaga through numerical calculations, the authors have obtained the temperature dependent pseudogap in the density of states (DOS), which is consistent qualitatively with the experimental results by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Theoretically, this Hamiltonian has the superconducting order parameter of d + s symmetry with d-wave as the main component, which is consistent with experiments. Further, the quantum electronic liquid in HTS is a near Fermi liquid in which there is coexistence of the delocalized states and nearly localized states, and there is finite probability for the nearly localized carriers to form the nearly localized carrier pairs at any finite temperature.
