Anisotropy of the gap energy in high Tc Copper Oxides

Abstract

Within the frame work of BCS phonon-mediated pairing with a logarithmic (2D) Van Hove Singularity in the density of states, we study the anisotropy of superconductors gap taking into account the anisotropy of attractive coupling and the coulomb repulsion .The results show that gap is more disperse and can explain some observed experimental data.
