Kinetic on pseudogap ping.
My labradoodle eats pseudogaps.
When did lead bismuth strontium lanthanum copper-oxide become a single material?
hehe he heh.. heh.. He said ‘kinetic’ heh.. heh.. he hehe.
Physics Ping!!
The key ingredient in the High Tc materials are naturally-ocurring 2-dimensional substrates of CO2.
The High Tc materials are “Jahn-Teller distort materials” - which simply mean that they contain these stable sheets of CO2. Playing around with the other materials changes the hole-doping of the CO2.
Antiferromagnetic exchange between hole-pairs acts as an attractive force between hole pairs on this sort of lattice, but it doesn’t by itself beat charge repulsion.
I left the field before the correct pairing mechanism was identified - if it has indeed yet been identified. The leading theory (IIRC) of the hole-pairing involved not pairing, but collective behaviour due to the fractional quantum Hall effect which can only occur on 2-and-a-bit-dimensional lattices such as these JT-distort lattices.
Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma, and Superconductivity?
Yeah. What he said.
All I want to know is how soon we’ll have lightsabers.
How long before I have to replace my mono-crystal copper stereo interconnects?
If anyone is a fringe fan, this is getting close
