contents Phase fluctuations are widely accepted to play a primary role in the quench of the long-range superconducting order in cuprates. However, an experimental probe capable of unambiguously assessing their impact on the superconducting order parameter with momentum and time resolutions is still lacking. Here, we performed a high-resolution time- and angle-resolved photoemission study of optimally-doped Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ and demonstrated a new experimental strategy to directly probe light-induced changes in the order parameter's phase with momentum resolution. To do this, we tracked the ultrafast response of a phase-sensitive hybridization gap that appears at the crossing between two bands with opposite superconducting gap signs. Supported by theoretical modeling, we established phase fluctuations as the dominant factor defining the non-thermal response of the unconventional superconducting phase in cuprates.

Phase fluctuations are widely accepted to play a primary role in the quench of the long-range superconducting order in cuprates.
