Ey. Sherman et al., INTENSITY OF THE B-1G PHONON RAMAN-SCATTERING IN YBA2CU3O7 - COMPARISON OF NORMAL AND SUPERCONDUCTING STATES, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 52(22), 1995, pp. 15757-15760
We compare theoretically the intensity of the B-1g phonon Raman scatte
ring in YBa2Cu3O7 above and below the superconducting transition tempe
rature T-c. Our analysis shows that a considerable enhancement of the
scattering intensity in the superconducting state that is observed exp
erimentally can be caused by an extension of the number of intermediat
e electronic states near the Fermi surface that participate in the Ram
an process.
