Abstract: In a self-consistent mean-field treatment of the two-dimensional t-t'-J model, we theoretically examine the coupling of in-plane quasi-particles to the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations in high-Tc superconductors, which renormalizes the fermionic self-energy. We reproduce the characteristic peak-dip-hump structure observed not only in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, but also in supperconductor-insulator-normal metal junction and scan tunneling microscopy experiments. We consider the evolution of this structure with doping. It is shown that this kind of coupling can account for many anomalous properties of high-Tc superconductor in superconducting states.
