Cuprate superconductors in the normal state exhibit the "anomalous Hall effect",1ie., the longitudinal components of the current scattters linearly with T whereas the Hall angle obeys a T2 scattering, where T is temperature. To help resolve this anomaly, we have developed a technique to measure the Hall angle at far-infrared frequencies. Measuring the magnetotransmission spectrum of polarized light through thin film of YBCO, we are able to independently measure both the real and imaginary parts of the complex Hall response. With a spectral range from dc to 250 cm -1, a lineshape analysis of the Hall response reveals that the Hall angle spectrum has a non-Lorentzian from thereby ruling out Drude-like transport models of the Hall effect. Instead it shows a dominant Loretnzian-squared response, implying a square-scattering behavior with a scattering rate that is linear in T and which quantitatively fits the linear scattering rate of the longitudinal current. The experimental results strongly constrain the number of theories that can accurately describe transport in normal state cuprates.

Multi-band superconductors are analyzed and the relevance of overlapping energy bands to the high-T c of these materials is studied. Within the BCS framework, a two band model with generalized Fermi surface topologies is developed. Values of the overlapped occupancy parameters for typical cuprate superconductors are obtained as a function of the ratio R and the effective coupling constant, λ, in the weak-coupling limit. The overlap scale is of the order or lower than the cutoff (Debye) energy. The typical behavior of the isotope effect is obtained. As these superconductors have transition temperatures above the phonon barrier, the results of this approach are important to the generic understanding of the high-T c superconducting mechanism.

We consider the interlayer pair-tunneling model for layered cuprates, including an effective single particle hopping along the c-axis. A phenomenological suppression of the c-axis hopping matrix element, by the pseudogap in cuprate superconductors, is incorporated. At optimal doping, quantities characteristic to the superconducting state, such as the transition temperature and the superconducting gap are calculated. Results from our calculations are consistent with the experimental observations with the noteworthy point that, the superconducting gap as a function of temperature shows excellent match to the experimental data. Predictions within the model, regarding T c variation with interlayer coupling, are natural outcomes which could be tested further.

As is shown, thermally assisted vortex motion can come into being in high-T c superconductors due to the applied temperature gradient. Its behavior strongly depends on the local and global microstructure of the samples, moreover on the temperature and magnetic field. Investigation of the density, size and intensity of the pinning centers of specimens leads to the conclusion that the higher homogeneity immediately weakens and the lower one strenghtens the pinning, thus the former promotes and the latter impedes the vortex motion. The non-equilibrium experimental technique together with a.c. susceptibility measurements render possible the direct determination of the velocity of vortices. Depending on the actual microstructural state of samples it has the values between 6 × 10-2 mm/s and 18 × 10-2 mm/s in the case of Y-Ba-Cu-O specimens investigated.

We have found the correlation between nanoscopic phase separation in the copper-oxygen planes of YBCO and TlBCCO and the transport and magnetic properties of these materials in the a-b planes such as: the temperature dependence of the critical current density Jc( T ), the temperature dependence of the superfluid density ns( T )∝1/λ2( T ) at low temperatures, the temperature dependence of the normalized logarithmic relaxation rate S(T), and the dependence of the effective energy barrier against vortex motion on the current density Ueff( J ). These properties are controlled by the ratio of the amount of an underdoped filamentary phase to that of an optimally doped one.
