Abstract

Low energy electronic Raman scattering from Tl2Ba2CuO6+δ single crystals with Tc=25and85K has been studied using excitation energies from 1.65 to 3.05 eV. The B1g 2Δ peak position shows that the 2Δ/kBTc value decreases as the doping level increases. The resonance profiles of the 2Δ peak and the continuum show similar and strong resonances towards the 3.4 eV optical absorption peak in both crystals, which indicates that (1) the 2Δ peak and the continuum are coupled to light scattering by the same mechanism, and (2) the light scattering mechanism for both features involves the 3.4 eV optical absorption process.
