Positron Annihilation Studies of High-Tc Superconductors

First we present the principles involved in the study of the two-photon momentum distribution: The method requires deconvolution of the positron wavefunction and the estimation of matrix elements effects. Single crystal samples must be of sufficient quality to avoid positron trapping (tested by positron lifetime measurements). In ordinary metals (alkalis, transition- and rare earth metals and compounds) two-photon momentum distribution studies have given results in close agreement with relevant band structure calculations. Discrepancies have been successfully described as enhancement effects due to correlations. In the superconducting oxides, measurements are more difficult because there are fewer conduction electrons and more trapping. Correlation effects of a different nature are expected to be important and might render the band picture inappropriate. Two-photon momentum distribution measurements have now been made by several groups, but have been interpreted in different ways. We relate the current state of affairs, and our present interpretation, to the latest available results.
