摘要
The quasiparticle (QP) dynamics with different symmetry is investigated in the superconducting (SC) and normal state of the high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta (Bi2212) using optical pump-probe experiments with different light polarizations at different doping levels. The observation of distinct selection rules for SC excitations present in A(1g) and B-1g symmetries, and for the pseudogap (PG) excitations present in A(1g) and B-2g symmetries by the probe, and absence of any dependence on the pump beam polarization leads to the unequivocal conclusion of the existence of a spontaneous spatial symmetry breaking in the PG state not limited to the sample surface.
