We compared four hole-scales that have been used to determine the hole-concentration in high-temperature cuprate superconductors. We show that the hole-scale, $P_{pl}$-scale, based on the thermoelectric power [T. Honma $et$ $al$., Phys. Rev. B70, (2004) 214517.] is quantitatively consistent with spectroscopic probes for many different cuprate materials, while the other hole-scales, based on a well-known dome-shaped $T_c$-curve [M. R. Presland $et$ $al$., Physica C176, 95 (1991)], the $c$-axis…

Microscopic electronic inhomogeneity in the high-Tc superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x
The presence of an electronic inhomogeneity is reported in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x, a consequence of proximity to a Mott insulator resulting in poor screening of the charge potentials associated with the oxygen ions left in the BiO plane after doping, and is indicative of the local nature of the superconducting state.
