Competing orders and inter-layer tunnelling in cuprate superconductors: A finite temperature Landau theory
We propose a finite temperature Landau theory that describes competing orders
and interlayer tunneling in cuprate superconductors as an important extension
to a corresponding theory at zero temperature [Nature {\bf 428}, 53 (2004)],
where the superconducting transition temperature is defined in three
possible ways as a function of the zero temperature order parameter. For given
parameters, our theory determines without any ambiguity. In mono- and
double-layer systems we discuss the relation between zero temperature order
parameter and the associated transition temperature in the presence of
competing orders, and draw a connection to the puzzling experimental fact that
the pseudo-gap temperature is much higher than the corresponding energy scale
near optimum doping. Applying the theory to multi-layer systems, we calculate
the layer-number dependence of . In a reasonable parameter space the
result turns out to be in agreement with experiments.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
3-Isopropyl-2-(4-methoxyphenoxy)-1-benzofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one
In the title compound, C20H18N2O4, all non-H atoms of the three fused rings of the benzofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidine system are almost coplanar (r.m.s. deviation 0.021 Å). The dihedral angle between the fused ring system and the benzene ring is 1.47 (12)°. Intramolecular and intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds together with weak C—H⋯π interactions stabilize the structure
1-{1-[(2-Chlorothiazol-5-yl)methyl]-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl}ethanone
In the title compound, C9H9ClN4OS, the two rings enclose a dihedral angle of 84.67 (11)°. Intermolecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds stabilize the crystal packing
