A Theoretical Approach to Pseudogap and Superconducting Transitions in Hole-Doped Cuprates
Figure 10
A plot of the values of the pseudogap (PG) state quasiparticle (dimensionless) thermal conductivity and the normal state thermal conductivity as a function of temperature ( in Kelvin) at the doping level 9.94%. The discontinuity in is clearly visible at K. The dimensionless Lorentz number , at the doping level 9.94% in the PG phase, is found to be of (indicating that (dimensionless) in the PG phase) albeit with slight variation. The variation may be due to the total omission of the interband contributions in (39).
