We study the single-particle spectra of a model which shows an incommensurate charge-density wave (CDW) instability arising from the competition between phase separation and long-range Coulomb interactions. Starting from an open Fermi surface we find that the resulting CDW is oriented along the (1,0)- and (or) (0,1)-direction which (besides a purely one-dimensional structure) allows for a two-dimensional "eggbox type" charge modulation. This leads to a substantial enhancement of the van Hove singularities and the spectral weight of Fermi surface states near the M-points tends to be suppressed. Remarkably, a leading edge gap arises near these points, which, in the eggbox case, leaves finite arcs of the Fermi surface gapless. Extending this approach to the inclusion of dynamic incommensurate CDW fluctuations in the superconducting state we calculate the photoemission lineshape which agrees well with experimental data of underdoped Bi2212 compounds.

Abstract
We study the single-particle spectra of a model which shows an incommensurate charge-density wave (CDW) instability arising from the competition between phase separation and long-range Coulomb interactions. Starting from an open Fermi surface we find that the resulting CDW is oriented along the (1,0)- and (or) (0,1)-direction which (besides a purely one-dimensional structure) allows for a two-dimensional "eggbox type" charge modulation. This leads to a substantial enhancement of the van Hove singularities and the spectral weight of Fermi surface states near the M-points tends to be suppressed. Remarkably, a leading edge gap arises near these points, which, in the eggbox case, leaves finite arcs of the Fermi surface gapless. Extending this approach to the inclusion of dynamic incommensurate CDW fluctuations in the superconducting state we calculate the photoemission lineshape which agrees well with experimental data of underdoped Bi2212 compounds.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
