Theory of specific heat of vortex liquid of high T_c superconductors

Superconducting thermal fluctuation(STF) plays an important role in both thermodynamic and transport properties in the vortex liquid phase of high T_c superconductors.It was widely observed in the vicinity of the critical transition temperature.In the framework of Ginz burg-Landau-La wrence-Doniach theory in magnetic field,a self-consistent analysis of STF including all Landau levels is given.Besides that,we calculate the contribution of STF to specific heat in vortex liquid phase for high T_c cuprate superconductors,and the fitting results are in good agreement with experimental data.
