Abstract

A recent unification of the BCS theory with that of the Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) through a "complete" boson-fermion model is discussed as a generalization of the "BCS-Bose crossover" picture of superconductivity. Good first-principles Tc predictions in 2D are calculated with no adjustable parameters for the so-called "exotic" cuprate superconductors of the "Uemura plot", without abandoning the phonon interaction mechanism. The only condition is that one depart moderately from the perfect electron-/hole-Cooper-pair symmetry to which BCS (as well as the "crossover") theory are restricted by construction.
