Abstract

We report the infrared (IR) response of Cu-O chains in the high-Tc superconductor YBa2Cu3Oy over the doping range spanning y=6.28–6.75. We find evidence for a power law scaling at mid-IR frequencies consistent with predictions for Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid, thus supporting the notion of one-dimensional transport in the chains. We analyze the role of coupling to the CuO2 planes in establishing metallicity and superconductivity in disordered chain fragments.
