Conference Object Probing the Density of States of High Temperature Superconductors With Point Contact Tunneling Spectroscopy(Springer Verlag, 2005) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Zasadzinski, John F.; Miyakawa, Nobuaki; Gray, Kenneth E.; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyTunneling spectroscopy measurements are performed on single crystals of single CuO2 layer Tl2Ba2CuO6+delta, double CuO2 layer Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta (Bi2212) and polycrystal quadruple CuO2 layer CuBa2Ca3Cu4O12+delta using the point contact tunneling technique. I-V and dI/dV-V characteristics are obtained at 4.2 K. In spite of different number of layers and T-c values, all three high-T-c superconductors exhibit similar spectral features including dip and hump features reminiscent of strong-coupling effects in conventional superconductors. The doping dependence of Bi2212 is studied and several effects of the hole concentration on spectral features are found. A novel effect is that the energy gap increases in the underdoped region even as T-c decreases. Combining the doping dependence of the energy gap and the dip energy provides additional information in order to understand the mechanism of high-T-c superconductivity. Point contact tunneling studies of the doping dependence of the energy gap in Bi2212 also helped to understand local variations of the gap magnitude observed by scanning tunneling microscopy, indicating that this type of spectroscopy is an integral part of the tunneling technique.Article Fabrication of Bi2212 Single Crystal Bolometer for Detection of Terahertz Waves(Springer Verlag, 2017) Semerci, Tuğçe; Demirhan, Yasemin; Demirhan, Yasemin; Wang, Huabing; Özyüzer, Lütfi; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyTerahertz (THz) radiation is in powerful region of electromagnetic spectrum because of prosperous application areas yet deficiency still exists about sources and detectors in despite of improvements of the research field in this range. This gap can be filled by focusing on development of THz detectors. Therefore, bolometers were preferred through many detectors due to detection sensitivity above 1 THz. In this study, Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ (Bi2212) single crystals were used to fabricate THz bolometric detector. Bi2212 single crystals were transferred on sapphire substrate by cleavage process and e-beam lithography and ion beam etching were used to fabricate the microchip clean room facilities. Customdesigned cryogenic cryostat was used for a-b axis electrical and THz response measurements with liquid nitrogen cooled system. After electrical measurements, Bi2212 microchips detected the signals using Stefan-Boltzmann Lamp and response time were calculated. This study have shown with our experimental results that Bi2212 single crystals are potential candidates for THz bolometric detectors.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7Thin Film Like Terahertz Bolometric Detector on Bi2212 Single Crystal(Springer Verlag, 2016) Semerci, Tuğçe; Demirhan, Yasemin; Demirhan, Yasemin; Wang, Huabing; Özyüzer, Lütfi; 04.05. Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn this study, we developed a microbolometer chip fabricated from high temperature superconducting Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ (Bi2212) single crystals for the terahertz (THz) detection. For the manufacturing of the microbolometer chips, Bi2212 single crystals were transferred on substrate in the thin film like form and electron beam lithography, ion beam etching techniques were used. Resistance versus temperature behavior of the bolometer chips were performed by four probe technique in liquid nitrogen cryostat. Bi2212 microchips were integrated and characterized using in our custom-designed cryogenic bolometer system instead of expensive and massive cooling systems. The fabricated microchips significantly detected signals from the Stefan-Boltzmann lamp which includes a portion of THz radiation. The detected power and response time were studied for Bi2212 thin film like microbolometer chips. Our results demonstrated the feasibility of improved Bi2212 microchips could be used for bolometric detection for THz applications.
