The study of electronic nematicity in an overdoped (Bi, Pb)2Sr2CuO6+δ superconductor using scanning tunneling spectroscopy

Abstract The pseudogap (PG) state and its related intra-unit-cell symmetry breaking remain the focus in the research of cuprate superconductors. Although the nematicity has been studied in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ, especially underdoped samples, its behavior in other cuprates and different doping regions is...
