Abstract

In the underdoped region of the phase diagram, time-resolved optical experiments on quasiparticle recombination dynamics show that the state is characterized by a temperature independent energy gap E_g which exists at all temperatures and has a magnitude which appears inversely proportional to doping. Close to optimum doping another, collective gap Δ becomes visible simultaneously, which has a BCS-like temperature dependence and closes at T_c.
