| contents | Superconductivity is achieved by the pairing of electrons and phase coherence between the Cooper pairs. According to the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory, the quasiparticles with Bogoliubov dispersion exists and reveal particle-hole symmetric coherence peaks on the single particle tunneling spectrum. Here we report the observation of two kinds of tunneling spectra showing only one side of the "coherence peak" but with symmetric energies (about +-11 meV) in underdoped cuprate superconductor Bi2Sr2-xLaxCuO6 single crystals (p=0.114) with fractional superconductivity. Merging these two kinds of spectra can mimic the complete Bogoliubov dispersion, thus we name the electronic states associated with these half-peaked spectrum as "half Bogoliubons". In previous studies, it was shown that two doped holes may bind into a local pair within the 4a0 x 4a0 plaquette of CuO bonds (a0: distance between nearest Cu atoms). We attribute the "half-Bogoliubons" to the intermediate states for the phase coherence, and they correspond to the three-hole and one-hole states as the excited ones from the local pairing state of two holes. An entanglement of these two "half-Bogoliubons" would mean the dynamic hopping of charge freedom resulting in the phase coherence between the local paired states. Our results unravel a unique process for establishing the phase coherence through exchanging a charge between the regions with local pairs. |
