Visualising the Charge and Cooper-Pair Density Waves in Cuprates

This thesis reports on the use of scanning tunnelling microscopy to elucidate the atomic-scale electronic structure of a charge density wave, revealing that it has a d-symmetry form factor, hitherto unobserved in nature.

Aceasta teza raporteaza despre utilizarea microscopiei de tunelare de scanare pentru a elucida structura electronica la scara atomica a unei unde de densitate a sarcinii, dezvaluind ca are un factor de forma d-simetrie, pana acum neobservat in natura.
