  2. 2. Intrinsic tunneling spectroscopy of low-Tc cuprate superconductors : Pseudogap, fluctuations and electrical doping

    Author : Thorsten Jacobs; Vladimir M. Krasnov; Magnus Andersson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bi-2201; Bi-2212; low-Tc; cuprates; intrinsic tunneling; transport measurements; pseudogap; fluctuations; electrical doping; Physics; fysik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, intrinsic tunneling and magnetic transport measurements of the cuprate superconductor Bi2+xSr2-yCuO6+δ (Bi-2201) are presented. The compound is characterized by a single-CuO2 plane, has a very low critical temperature Tc ~ 4K and a relatively low upper critical field Hc2 ~ 10T. READ MORE

  3. 3. Optical studies of carrier transport and fundamental absorption in 4H-SiC and Si

    Author : Paulius Grivickas; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Fourier transient grating (FTG) technique and a novelspectroscopic technique, both based on free carrier absorption(FCA) probing, have been applied to study the carrierdiffusivity in 4H-SiC and the fundamental absorption edge in4H-SiC and Si, respectively. FTG is a unique technique capable of detecting diffusioncoefficient dependence over a broad injection interval rangingfrom minority carrier diffusion to the ambipolar case. READ MORE

  4. 4. Confinement and resonant phenomena in small Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 mesa structures

    Author : Sven-Olof Katterwe; Vladimir M. Krasnov; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis, intrinsic Josephson junctions, naturally formed in the stronglyanisotropic high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8, are studied experimentally.Small mesa structures are fabricated on the surface of singlecrystals using micro- and nano-fabrication tools, focused ion beam is used toreduce the mesa-area to ≈ 1 × 1 μm2.

  5. 5. Functional Interfaces in Epitaxial YBa2Cu3O7-δ with Artificial Grain Boundary Junctions

    Author : Henrik Pettersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The properties of superconducting devices based on grain boundaries in YBa2Cu3O7-δ (YBCO) thin films are determined by the atomic structure of the grain boundary plane. To obtain these devices based on single grain boundaries, biepitaxial fabrication techniques has been used. READ MORE
