Abstract
Raman scattering has been an unusually fruitful method of studying high temperature superconductors. Two-magnon excitations in antiferromagnetic samples, the broad electronic continuum in superconducting samples, and vibrational modes and their sensitivity to doping and to temperature have all been extensively investigated. The properties of the continuum are discussed, including its coupling to phonons, its universality, and its redistribution upon cooling well below Tc. Possible origins of the continuum, its possible non-Fermi liquid behavior, and its connection with the superconducting gap will be considered.
Collaborative work with F. Slakey, S. L. Cooper, J. P. Rice, E. D. Bukowski, and D. M. Ginsberg.
