Insensitivity of Tc to the residual resistivity in high-Tc cuprates and the tale of two domes

One of the few undisputed facts about hole-doped high-Tc cuprates is that their superconducting gap Δ has d-wave symmetry. According to ‘dirty’ d-wave BCS theory, even structural (non-magnetic) disorder can suppress Δ, the transition temperature Tc and the superfluid density ρs. The degree to which...
