TL;DR
This paper argues that the transition at Tc in hole-doped cuprates is driven by phase fluctuations causing loss of coherence, challenging the mean-field Ginzburg Landau approach.
Contribution
It provides experimental evidence supporting phase fluctuation-driven transition over the mean-field theory in hole-doped cuprates.
Findings
Experiments support phase fluctuations as the mechanism for the Meissner transition.
Contradicts the mean-field Ginzburg Landau approach.
Highlights the importance of long-range phase coherence loss.
Abstract
Our experiments \cite{Wang05,Li05,Wang06} persuade us that the Meissner transition at in hole-doped cuprates is driven by the loss of long-range phase coherence caused by singular phase fluctuations, a scenario at odds with the mean-field (MF), Gaussian Ginzburg Landau (GGL) approach advocated by Cabo, Mosquiera and Vidal \cite{Cabo}.
