Abstract
An analytical model invoking variations in the charge-carrier density is used to generate magnetoresistance curves that are almost indistinguishable from those produced by sophisticated numerical models. This demonstrates that, though disorder is pivotal in causing linear magnetoresistance, the form of the magnetoresistance thus generated is insensitive to details of the disorder. Taken in conjunction with the temperature (T) dependence of the zero-field resistivity, realistic levels of disorder are shown to be sufficient to explain the linear magnetoresistance and field-T resistance scaling observed in high-temperature pnictide and cuprate superconductors. Hence, though the T-linear zero-field resistance is a definite signature of the “strange metal” state of high-temperature superconductors, their linear magnetoresistance and its scaling is unlikely to be so.
