Sommerfeld’s Coefficient Of Boson-Fermion Pair Condensate In Optimally-Doped Cuprates. Journal of Multidisciplinary Engineering Science and Technology, 8(12), pp. 11857-11861.2458-9403http://erepository.kibu.ac.ke/handle/123456789/11674Journal ArticleHigh temperature superconductivity has shown dependence on the interaction between a finite momentum Cooper-pair boson and a fermion. The occurrence of a superconducting energy gap in cuprates is defined by collective excitation of boson-fermion pair condensates (BFPC) above the ground state. The ground state energy of the system represents its total internal and has been used to determine Sommerfeld’s coefficient of a BFPC in high temperature superconductor’s. Atypically, the study is furthered by linking the theory to experiments, through extrapolations, leading to high-precision results both in cuprates and ironbased superconductors. For instance, the Sommerfeld’s coefficients of the model in YBa2Cu3O7 and Ca0.33Na0.67Fe2As2 are found to be 𝟑𝟎.𝟑𝟔𝐦𝐉𝐦𝐨𝐥−𝟏𝐊−𝟐 and 𝟏𝟏𝟒.𝟏𝐦𝐉𝐦𝐨𝐥−𝟏𝐊−𝟐 respectively while the empirical ranges in these materials are 𝟑𝟎±𝟓𝐦𝐉𝐦𝐨𝐥−𝟏𝐊−𝟐 and 𝟏𝟎𝟓± 𝟓 𝐦𝐉𝐦𝐨𝐥−𝟏𝐊−𝟐 respectivelyen—Boson-fermion Pair CondensateGround-state energySpecific heatSommerfeld’s CoefficientArticle
