Hole depletion and localization due to disorder in insulatingPrBa2Cu3O

Abstract: The ͑mostly͒ insulating behavior of PrBa 2 Cu 3 O 7Ϫ␦ is still unexplained and even more interesting due to the occasional appearance of superconductivity in this material. Since YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7Ϫ␦ is nominally isostructural and always superconducting, we have measured the electron momentum density in these materials. We find that they differ in a striking way, the wave function coherence length in PrBa 2 Cu 3 O 7Ϫ␦ being strongly suppressed. We conclude that Pr on Ba-site substitution disorder is responsible fo… Show more

“…3, is also equal to the difference of profiles 20 between two crystallographic directions [100] -[110] and it can be compared to a similar Compton profile anisotropy measured by Shukla et al at a lower hole doping. 48 The amplitude of the theory is the same as that in the experiment, while in Ref. 48 the theoretical A 1d (p x ) had to be scaled down by a factor of 1.4 to obtain agreement with experiment.…”

“…This is important because this difference originates in the MnO planes which are the seat of the CMR properties. Similar effects have been observed in the metallic YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 and insulating PrBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 systems [18]. However, this is the first time that this effect has been observed on the same sample under the influence of external parameters such as temperature and magnetic field.…”

“…3 all the metallic A 1D (p z ) look remarkably alike, showing that the overall description of the electronic structure is satisfactory. In particular, the amplitude of A 1D (p z ) in the resolution-broadened theory is the same as that in the experiment while in the case of the cuprates the theoretical A 1D (p z ) had to be scaled down by a factor of 1.4 to obtain agreement with experiment [18]. The experimental curve for the insulator (paramagnetic phase), however, presents important changes in the low-momentum region indicating that the electrons with p oxygen character at the FS structure near (0.5, 0) a.u.…”
