The exciton mechanism of high-Tc superconductivity in copper oxides
was initially proposed by Prof. J. Bardeen. His insight is largely
shared by another luminary in superconductivity, Prof. V. L.
Ginzburg. The main author of the book, Dr. Nie Luo, was motivated
by their insights to give a geometrical explanation to the
excitonic Coulomb interaction and has developed a unique formalism
to understand and predict physical properties of high-Tc
superconductors. This work is supported by increasingly strong
evidence for electron-hole interactions in p-type cuprates. The
presence of electrons in hole-doped cuprates is revealed by the
works of the authors and many others, including the late Prof. L.
P. Gor'kov. The book also tries to understand the interlayer
Coulomb (ILC) pairing model by the excitonic Coulomb interaction.
Developed by Prof. A. J. Leggett, ILC theory shares many views with
Ginzburg's approach. The other author of the book, Prof. George H.
Miley, shares with us his personal experience with Prof. Bardeen on
the exciton's role in physics problems including high-Tc
superconductivity. The results and predictions of this excitonic
Coulomb mechanism have been verified by an increasing number of
experiments. This book summarizes the current status and fathoms
future directions.
