ABSTRACT
Strong correlations are known to severely reduce the mobility of charge carriers near half filling and thus have an important influence on the current carrying properties of grain boundaries in the high-T(c) cuprates. In this Letter we present an extension of the Gutzwiller projection approach to treat electronic correlations below as well as above half filling consistently. We apply this method to investigate the critical current through grain boundaries with a wide range of misalignment angles for electron- and hole-doped systems. For the latter excellent agreement with experimental data is found. We further provide a detailed comparison to an analogous weak-coupling evaluation.
