Metal-Insulator Transition in Copper Oxides Induced by Apex Displacements

High temperature superconductivity has been found in many kinds of compounds built from planes of Cu and O, separated by spacer layers. Understanding why critical temperatures are so high has been the subject of numerous investigations and extensive controversy. To realize high temperature supercond...
