Restored strange metal phase through suppression of charge density waves in underdoped YBa2Cu3O7-δ The normal state of optimally doped cuprates is dominated by the “strange metal” phase that shows a linear temperature (T) dependence of the resistivity persisting down to the lowest T. For underdoped cuprates, this behavior is lost below the pseudogap temperature T*, where … Continue reading Restored strange metal phase through suppression of charge density waves in underdoped YBa2Cu3O7-δ
