    Role of pair-breaking and phase fluctuations in c-axis tunneling in underdoped Bi2_{2}Sr2_{2}CaCu2_{2}O8+δ_{8+\delta}

    Full text link
    The Josephson Plasma Resonance is used to study the c-axis supercurrent in the superconducting state of underdoped Bi2_{2}Sr2_{2}CaCu2_{2}O8+δ_{8+\delta} with varying degrees of controlled point-like disorder, introduced by high-energy electron irradiation. As disorder is increased, the Josephson Plasma frequency decreases proportionally to the critical temperature. The temperature dependence of the plasma frequency does not depend on the irradiation dose, and is in quantitative agreement with a model for quantum fluctuations of the superconducting phase in the CuO2_{2} layers.Comment: 2 pages, submitted to the Proceedings of M2S-HTSC VIII Dresde

    Collective responses of Bi-2212 stacked junction to 100 GHz microwave radiation under magnetic field oriented along the c-axis

    Full text link
    We studied a response of Bi-2212 mesa type structures to 100 GHz microwave radiation. We found that applying magnetic field of about 0.1 T across the layers enables to observe collective Shapiro step response corresponding to a synchronization of all 50 intrinsic Josephson junctions (IJJ) of the mesa. At high microwave power we observed up to 10th harmonics of the fundamental Shapiro step. Besides, we found microwave induced flux-flow step position of which is proportional to the square root of microwave power and that can exceed at high enough powers 1 THz operating frequency of IJJ oscillations.Comment: 11 pages including 5 figures, accepted for publication in JETP Letter

    The emergence of quantum capacitance in epitaxial graphene

    We found an intrinsic redistribution of charge arises between epitaxial graphene, which has intrinsically n-type doping, and an undoped substrate. In particular, we studied in detail epitaxial graphene layers thermally elaborated on C-terminated 4H4H-SiCSiC (4H4H-SiCSiC (0001ˉ000{\bar{1}})). We have investigated the charge distribution in graphene-substrate systems using Raman spectroscopy. The influence of the substrate plasmons on the longitudinal optical phonons of the SiCSiC substrates has been detected. The associated charge redistribution reveals the formation of a capacitance between the graphene and the substrate. Thus, we give for the first time direct evidence that the excess negative charge in epitaxial monolayer graphene could be self-compensated by the SiCSiC substrate without initial doping. This induced a previously unseen redistribution of the charge-carrier density at the substrate-graphene interface. There a quantum capacitor appears, without resorting to any intentional external doping, as is fundamentally required for epitaxial graphene. Although we have determined the electric field existing inside the capacitor and revealed the presence of a minigap (4.3meV\approx 4.3meV) for epitaxial graphene on 4H4H-SiCSiC face terminated carbon, it remains small in comparison to that obtained for graphene on face terminated SiSi. The fundamental electronic properties found here in graphene on SiCSiC substrates may be important for developing the next generation of quantum technologies and electronic/plasmonic devices.Comment: 26 pages, 8 figures, available online as uncorrected proof, Journal of Materials Chemistry C (2016

    Controlling high-frequency collective electron dynamics via single-particle complexity

    Get PDF
    We demonstrate, through experiment and theory, enhanced high-frequency current oscillations due to magnetically-induced conduction resonances in superlattices. Strong increase in the ac power originates from complex single-electron dynamics, characterized by abrupt resonant transitions between unbound and localized trajectories, which trigger and shape propagating charge domains. Our data demonstrate that external fields can tune the collective behavior of quantum particles by imprinting configurable patterns in the single-particle classical phase space.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure

    Vortex Solid-Liquid Transition in Bi2_{2}Sr2_{2}CaCu2_{2}O8+δ_{8+\delta} with a High Density of Strong Pins

    Full text link
    The introduction of a large density of columnar defects in %underdoped Bi2_{2}Sr2_{2}CaCu2_{2}O8+δ_{8+\delta} crystals does not, at sufficiently low vortex densities, increase the irreversibility line beyond the first order transition (FOT) field of pristine crystals. At such low fields, the flux line wandering length rwr_{w} behaves as in pristine %Bi2_{2}Sr2_{2}CaCu2_{2}O8+δ_{8+\delta} crystals. Next, vortex positional correlations along the cc--axis in the vortex Bose glass at fields above the FOT are smaller than in the low--field vortex solid. Third, the Bose-glass-to-vortex liquid transition is signaled by a rapid decrease in c-axis phase correlations. These observations are understood in terms of the ``discrete superconductor'' model.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures Submitted to Phys. Rev. B Rapid Comm. 16-1-2004 Revised version 18-3-200

    Vortex fluctuations in underdoped Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d crystals

    Get PDF
    Vortex thermal fluctuations in heavily underdoped Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d (Tc=69.4 K) are studied using Josephson plasma resonance (JPR). From the data in zero magnetic field, we obtain the penetration depth along the c-axis, lambda_{L,c}(0) = 229 micrometers and the anisotropy ratio gamma(0) = 600. The low plasma frequency allows us to study phase correlations over the whole vortex solid (Bragg-glass) state. The JPR results yield a wandering length r_{w} of vortex pancakes. The temperature dependence of r_{w} as well as its increase with applied dc magnetic field can only be explained by the renormalization of the tilt modulus by thermal fluctuations, and suggest the latter is responsible for the dissociation of the vortices at the first order transition.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures.

    Distribution of pairing functions in superconducting spin valve SF1F2

    Get PDF
    The distribution of the spin-singlet component, the short-range spin-triplet component with zero projection, and the long-range spin-triplet component with projection ±1 of the superconducting pairing function has been obtained for different regimes of switching of a spin valve with a three-layer heterostructure (superconductor/ferromagnet/ferromagnet). The distribution of the components is discussed as the main reason for the behavior of the superconducting transition temperature as a function of the angle between the magnetic moments of the ferromagnetic layers in these regimes

    A rotating cavity for high-field angle-dependent microwave spectroscopy of low-dimensional conductors and magnets

    Full text link
    The cavity perturbation technique is an extremely powerful method for measuring the electrodynamic response of a material in the millimeter- and sub-millimeter spectral range (10 GHz to 1 THz), particularly in the case of high-field/frequency magnetic resonance spectroscopy. However, the application of such techniques within the limited space of a high-field magnet presents significant technical challenges. We describe a 7.62 mm x 7.62 mm (diameter x length) rotating cylindrical cavity which overcomes these problems.Comment: 11 pages including 8 figure

    Magnetic field tunable vortex diode made of YBa2Cu3O7−δ Josephson junction asymmetrical arrays

    Get PDF
    Several Josephson ratchets designed as asymmetrically structured parallel-series arrays of Josephson junctions made of YBa2Cu3O7−δ have been fabricated. From the current-voltage characteristics measured for various values of applied magnetic field, B, in the temperature range of 10–89 K, we demonstrate that the devices work as magnetic field-tunable highly reversible vortex diodes. Thus, at 89 K, the ratchet efficiency η could be reversed from +60% to −60% with a change in B as small as 3 μT. By decreasing the operation temperature, η improves up to −95% at 10 K while the dynamics in the B-tunability degrades. The ratchet designs we propose here can be used to control unidirectional vortex flow vortices in superconducting devices as well as building integrated nano-magnetic sensors. Numerical simulations qualitatively confirm our experimental findings and also provide insight into the related and more general problem of the control of the transport of nano/quantum objects in thin films
