Abstract

Ellipsometric synchrotron spectroscopy of YBCO provides persuasive evidence supporting the Phillips-Jung (PJ) filamentary nanodomain model of the electronic structure of high-temperature superconductors (HTSCs). The PJ model is part of a universal off-lattice topological platform that explains the origin of the intermediate phase that is responsible for high-temperature superconductivity, the stiffness transition and reversibility window in network glasses, and the folding transitions of proteins. In HTSCs it is both more specific and more general than descriptions based on conventional collective modes related to charge-density waves.
