Tp. Devereaux et Ap. Kampf, Consistent picture of electronic Raman scattering and infrared conductivity in the cuprates, PHYS REV B, 61(2), 2000, pp. 1490-1494
Calculations are presented for electronic Raman scattering and infrared con
ductivity in a d(x2-y2) superconductor including the effects of elastic sca
ttering via anisotropic impurities and inelastic spin-fluctuation scatterin
g. A consistent description of experiments on optimally doped Bi-2212 is ma
de possible by considering the effects of correlations on both inelastic an
d elastic scattering.
