“…Measurements on yttria-stabilized zirconia crucible-grown, nominally pure, YBCO crystals at low frequencies Ω of order a few GHz showed an apparently linear temperature dependence, σ ∼ T for temperatures T sufficiently far below a large peak at 30-40K. [4,6] Theories of the dynamical conductivity in the d-wave state [7,8] have been successful in explaining roughly the size and position, as well as the frequency and disorder dependence of the peak. However, at low temperatures and small microwave frequencies, where transport is dominated by elastic scattering and the theory should be simplest, the theoretical prediction is σ ∼ T 2 , not T .…”
