One view of the high-transition-temperature (high-T-c) copper oxide superconductors is that they are conventional superconductors where the pairing occurs between weakly interacting quasi-particles (corresponding to the electrons in ordinary metals), altho ...
We have measured two structurally similar superconducting systems, RuSr2GdCu2O8 and GdBa2Cu3O7 by means of high-resolution ac susceptibility. The real and the imaginary part of ac susceptibility of both bulk-ceramic and powdered samples have been studied d ...
We analyze the transport through a narrow ballistic superconductor–normal-metal–superconductor Josephson contact with nonideal transmission at the superconductor–normal-metal interfaces, e.g., due to insulating layers, effective mass steps, or band misfits ...
Detailed data on the momentum-resolved temperature dependence of the superconducting gap of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x are presented, complemented by similar data on the intensity of the photoemission superconducting condensate spectral area. The gap anisotropy betwe ...
We report on the ab-plane polarized reflectance of an untwinned (Bi1.57Pb0.43)Sr2CaCu2O8+delta single crystal over the frequency range from 80 to 32 000 cm(-1) (10 meV-4 eV) at temperatures between 10 and 300 K. We find a clear anisotropy in the ab-plane o ...
Superconducting critical temperatures Tc are calculated as a function of the doping parameter x for generic layered Cu oxide superconductors, within the framework of a 2D-XY model with quantum phase fluctuations. The model accounts for the lower doping thr ...
Using angle-resolved photoemission, we observed a nonzero superconducting gap and the presence of a superconducting condensate along all three major symmetry directions. We find that the gap is highly anisotropic, with a gap as small as 1-2 meV along GAMMA ...
We present an update on recent events concerning ultrabright synchrotron radiation. First and foremost, a new generation of sources has been put in operation in the past few months. Second, microscopy and spectromicroscopy - arguably the techniques that wi ...
Studying the nodal quasiparticles in superconducting cuprates by photoemission with highly improved momentum resolution, we show that a new "kink" feature in the scattering rate is a key to uncover the nature of electron correlations in these compounds. Ou ...
The ac loss of superconducting composite depends strongly on coupling between superconducting filaments via the resistive matrix. The established technique for loss reduction using twisted filaments relies on the decoupling of the filaments below a critica ...
