d-wave stripes in cuprates: Valence bond order coexisting with nodal quasiparticles — •Matthias Vojta — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Köln, 50937 Köln, Germany

We point out that unidirectional bond-centered charge-density-wave states in cuprates involve electronic order in both s- and d-wave channels, with non-local Coulomb repulsion suppressing the s-wave component. The resulting bond-charge-density wave, coexisting with superconductivity, is compatible with momentum-space features seen in recent photoemission and tunneling data and as well as in neutron-scattering measurements, once long-range order is destroyed by slow fluctuations or glassy disorder.
