Local lattice distortions vs. structural phase transition in NdFeAsO1-xFx

Janusz Andrzej Karpinski, Sergiy Katrych

The lattice properties at low temperatures of two samples of NdFeAsO1-xFx (x = 0.05 and 0.25) have been examined in order to investigate possible structural phase transition that may occur in the optimally doped superconducting sample with respect to the n ...

Correlation of the superconducting critical temperature with spin and orbital excitations in (CaxLa1− x)(Ba1. 75− xLa 0. 25) Cu3Oy as measured by resonant inelastic x-ray scattering

Thorsten Schmitt

Electronic spin and orbital (dd) excitation spectra of (CaxLa1−x )(Ba1.75−xLa0.25+x)Cu3Oy samples are measured by resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). In this compound, Tc of samples with identical hole dopings is strongly affected by the Ca/Ba subs ...

The nature of the quasiparticles in two benchmark transition metal oxides

Simon Karl Moser

Transition metal oxides (TMOs) are emerging strong players in many domains, ranging from superconductivity, to microelectronics to spintronics to light harvesting for photovoltaics. Beyond their non-toxicity, low corrosiveness and low price, they exhibit a ...

Magnetic interference patterns in long disordered Josephson junctions

Benoît Crouzy, Dmitri Ivanov

We study a diffusive superconductor–normal-metal–superconductor (SNS) junction in an external magnetic field. In the limit of a long junction, we find that the form of the dependence of the Josephson current on the field and on the length of the junction d ...

On field effect studies and superconductor-insulator transition in high-Tc cuprates

Davor Pavuna, Guy Joseph Günter Dubuis, Ivan Bozovic

We summarize previous field effect studies in high-T (c) cuprates and then discuss our method to smoothly tune the carrier concentration of a cuprate film over a wide range using an applied electric field. We synthesized epitaxial one-unit-cell thick films ...

Signatures of quantum criticality in the thermopower of Ba(Fe1-xCox)(2)As-2

László Forró, Richard Gaal, Stevan Arsenijevic

We demonstrate that the thermopower (S) can be used to probe the spin fluctuations (SFs) in proximity to the quantum critical point (QCP) in Fe-based superconductors. The sensitivity of S to the entropy of charge carriers allows us to observe an increase o ...

ARPES Studies of Cuprate and Pnictide Superconductors

Elia Razzoli

Since the discovery of cuprate superconductors in 1986, the subject of high temperature superconductivity has triggered a lot of scientific activity. Despite enormous efforts, the origin of high-temperature superconductivity is still the subject of intense ...

Isotropic three-dimensional gap in the iron arsenide superconductor LiFeAs from directional heat transport measurements

Johan Juul Chang

The thermal conductivity κ of the iron-arsenide superconductor LiFeAs (Tc 18 K) was measured in single crystals at temperatures down to T50 mK and in magnetic fields up to H=17 T, very close to the upper critical field Hc218 T. For both directions of the h ...

Nanoscale Optical Detector with Single-Photon and Multiphoton Sensitivity

Francis Lévy, Francesco Marsili, Alessandro Gaggero

We present the first nanoscale (down to approximate to 50 x 50 nm(2)) detector displaying single-photon sensitivity and a nanosecond response. This type of nanodetector can also be operated in multiphoton mode, where the detection threshold can be set at N ...

Single-photon and photon-number-resolving detectors based on superconducting nanowires

Francesco Marsili

Nanowire superconducting single photon detectors (SSPDs) [1] are characterized by very high sensitivity in the near infrared (detection efficiency η up to 30%, for a dark count rate DK of few Hz), speed (up to ∼1 GHz repetition rate) and time resolution (j ...
