AI总结:

本研究针对铜氧化物超导体Tc以下非线性太赫兹光学响应增强的现象,通过考虑能带结构与无序的真实模型定量分析,发现BCS准粒子响应占主导,可解释三次谐波产生测量,但太赫兹克尔效应的偏振依赖需额外效应补充。

摘要:

近期在非常规铜氧化物超导体中开展的强太赫兹场实验明确证实,在超导临界温度Tc以下,非线性光学响应有所增强。与常规超导体的情况类似,为了解释实验结果,需要对促成非线性响应的各种效应进行理论估算。本文中,我们在一个符合实际的模型框架下,对铜氧化物中的非线性太赫兹光学核进行了详细的定量分析,该模型考虑了适用于这些体系的能带结构和无序水平。研究表明,BCS准粒子响应是铜氧化物中非线性响应的主要贡献来源,其偏振依赖特性与三次谐波产生的测量结果高度吻合。另一方面,我们的计算仅能部分解释太赫兹克尔效应的偏振依赖特性,这表明当使用具有不同中心频率的光脉冲探测该体系时,还存在其他额外的效应。

英文摘要:

Recent experiments with strong THz fields in unconventional cuprates superconductors have clearly evidenced an increase of the non-linear optical response below the superconducting critical temperature Tc. As in the case of conventional superconductors, a theoretical estimate of the various effects contributing to the non-linear response is needed in order to interpret the experimental findings. Here we report a detailed quantitative analysis of the non-linear THz optical kernel in cuprates within a realistic model, accounting for the band structure and disorder level appropriate for these systems. We show that the BCS quasiparticle response is the dominant contribution for cuprates, and its polarization dependence accounts very well for the third-harmonic generation measurements. On the other hand, the polarization dependence of the THz Kerr effect is only partly captured by our calculations, suggesting the presence of additional effects when the system is probed using light pulses with different central frequencies.
