Although cuprate superconductors have been intensively studied for the past decades, there is no consensus regarding the microscopic origin of their superconductivity. In this paper, we measure the low-energy electrodynamic response of slightly underdoped and overdoped ${\mathrm{La}}_{2\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Ce}}_{x}{\mathrm{CuO}}_{4}$ thin films using time-domain terahertz (THz) spectroscopy to determine the temperature and field …
