Physical Properties of Cuprate Superconductors: An Introduction

  • Conference paper
Book cover Physics of High-Temperature Superconductors

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences ((SSSOL,volume 106))

Abstract

An introductory overview is given over experiments in the field of cuprate superconductivity. The selection focuses on basic crystal-chemical aspects, spin dynamics and charge response in the normal state, and essential microscopic aspects of the superconducting state, including length scales, gap spectroscopies and order parameter symmetry.
