Abstract

Using charge transport in sintered ceramic samples it is observed that at all doping, including non superconducting overdoped samples, there exists a temperature in which below it dR/dT < 0. This suggests that either the quantum critical point is not necessarily inside the superconducting dome or that the CuO2 plane is never overdoped. Data relating experimental Cooper pair density, conductivity and Tc suggest that Homes’ relation might need a more specific definition of the conductivity σ.
