* ABSTRACT | |||||||
A mystery in understanding cuprate superconductors is the inconsistency between the experimental data for superconducting gap observed by scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). The gap between prominent two side peaks observed in STS is much bigger than the superconducting gap recently observed by ARPES. This mismatching also happens in Fe-based superconductors. In this talk, I reconcile the STS and the ARPES by extracting sample density of states (DOS) from the STS data, and clarify that the abovementioned mystery is resolved by discriminating between tunneling conductance and sample DOS for strongly correlated superconductors. This work is given by generalizing a theory which was previously applied to zero-dimensional quantum impurity systems to strongly correlated two-dimensional materials. I will show that the commonly observed two side peaks in STS have a universal origin: They are formed by coherence-mediated tunneling under bias. |
