Comparison of RT thermal properties of good metals, disordered metals, and cuprates. LSCO data are for La1.87Sr0.13CuO4 (see Fig. S4). BSCCO data are for optimally doped Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 as found in the literature. YBCO6.60(a-dir) and YBCO6.75(a-dir) a-direction data are on single crystals from similar doping, whereas diffusivity data are from this work. Discussions on , (with =a; a is the lattice constant), and = are in the text. Footnotes indicate the references for the quoted data.
