The experimentally measured phase diagram of cuprate superconductors in the temperature-applied magnetic field plane illuminates key issues in understanding the physics of these materials. At low temperature, the superconducting state gives way to a long-range charge order with increasing magnetic field; both the orders coexist in a small intermediate region. The charge order transition is strikingly insensitive to temperature, and quickly reaches a transition temperature close to the zero-field superconducting $T_c$. We argue that such a transition along with the presence of the coexisting phase cannot be described simply by a competing orders formalism. We demonstrate that for some range of parameters there is an enlarged symmetry of the strongly coupled charge and superconducting orders in the system depending on their relative masses and the coupling strength of the two orders. We establish that this sharp switch from the superconducting phase to the charge order phase can be understood in the framework of a composite SU(2) order parameter comprising the charge and superconducting orders. Finally, we illustrate that there is a possibility of the coexisting phase of the competing charge and superconducting orders only when the SU(2) symmetry between them is weakly broken due to biquadratic terms in the free energy. The relation of this sharp transition to the proximity to the pseudogap quantum critical doping is also discussed.
A general constructive procedure is presented for analyzing magnetic instabilities in two-dimensional materials, in terms of [predominantly] double nesting, and applied to Hartree-Fock HF+RPA and Gutzwiller approximation GA+RPA calculations of the Hu
Magnetic field induced antiferromagnetic phase of the underdoped cuprates is studied within the t-t-J model. A magnetic field suppresses the pairing amplitude, which in turn may induce antiferromagnetism. We apply our theory to interpret the recently
A possibility of holon (boson) pair condensation is explored for hole doped high T_c cuprates, by using the U(1) slave-boson representation of the t-J Hamiltonian with the inclusion of hole-hole repulsion. A phase diagram of the hole doped high T_c c
Strong evidence for charge-density correlation in the underdoped phase of the cuprate YBa2Cu3Oy was obtained by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and resonant x-ray scatter- ing. The fluctuations were found to be enhanced in strong magnetic fields. Re
There are processes in nature that resemble a true force but arise due to the minimization of the local energy. The most well-known case is the exchange interaction that leads to magnetic order in some materials. We discovered a new similar process o
