Temperature dependence of the experimental photoemission spectra of the high-T, superconductors have been interpreted and simulated by the recently formulated molecular nonadiabatic theory of the electron-vibrational interaction. The change of the spectral feature below T,, particularly formation of the narrow, near Fermi surface (FS) edge, peak separated by the dip from a broad spectral band at higher binding energies has been shown to be the consequence of the nonadiabatic electron-phonon coupling and corresponding properties of the nonadiabatic polarons. Simulation yields very good fit to the experimental temperature-dependent spectra, with the calculated value of the gap 30.5 meV.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
