Experimental indications for the role of the van Hove singularity (vHs) in the electronic density of states of high Tc superconductors are discussed. It is argued that (i) like the resistivity, the measured temperature and doping dependences of the normal state electronic specific heat of YBCO are consistent with the existence of a vHs and (ii) the doping dependence of Tc in the underdoped and optimally doped regimes may be accounted for mainly by a vHs. Further, we discuss the suppression of the quasiparticle scattering rate below Tc, and the coherence lengths in the hole-doped materials and NCCO. Assuming that the same mechanism for superconductivity operates in the electron-doped and the hole-doped cuprates, we argue that the bosonic mode that causes the superconductivity is strongly influenced by the doping in the overdoped regime. We further argue that this boson involves an energy scale larger than that of phonons and is only weakly coupled to the charge carriers.

Holstein Model

The theory of polarons has experienced a surge of activity in the last years partly due to the possible role of polaronic quasiparticles in high Tc superconductors. This numerical study of the Holstein model shows that the polaronic effective masses become essentially dimension independent and of order ≃10–50 times the electron mass at sufficiently strong intermolecular coupling forces. Such values (which are much lower than those obtained by traditional small polaron theory) would erase one the serious objections against a (bi)polaronic picture for high Tc superconductors.

Treating the new superconducting oxides as intercalation compounds, especially, as analogues to graphite intercalation compounds (GIC), clarifies the understanding of a number of their properties; in this description, the ratio of the number of cuprate layers per intercalant unit is equivalent to the stage number in GIC’s. In particular, the role of charge transfer (presumably, electron transfer from oxygen in the [Formula: see text] sheets to an acceptor site located in the intercalant) in optimizing Tc can be well discussed in these terms, leading to the prediction that the curve of Tc versus n, the number of [Formula: see text] layers, must have a maximum at a specific value of n.
