    Emission of the Thz Waves From Large Area Mesas of Superconducting Bi 2sr2cacu2o8+? by the Injection of Spin Polarized Current
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Türkoğlu, Fulya; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Köseoğlu, Hasan; Demirhan, Yasemin; Preu, S.; Malzer, S.; Şimşek, Yılmaz; Wang, Huabing; Muller, P.
    Rectangular Au/Co/Au/Bi2Sr2CaCu2O 8+δ (Bi2212) mesa structures with large areas and high thicknesses were fabricated on as-grown Bi2212 single crystals in order to obtain small critical current from as-grown mesas by the injection of spin polarized current and so eliminate the adjustment of doping level for successful THz emission. We have performed c-axis resistance versus temperature (R-T), current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and bolometer measurements. It is the first time that THz emission has been observed from as-grown mesas due to injection of spin polarized current. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Effect of Magnetic Field on Quasiparticle Branches of Intrinsic Josephson Junctions With Ferromagnetic Layer
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özdemir, Mustafa; Kurter, Cihan; Hinks, David G.; Gray, Kenneth E.
    The interlayer tunneling spectroscopy has been performed on micron-sized mesa arrays of HgBr2 intercalated superconducting Bi2212 single crystals. A ferromagnetic multilayer (Au/Co/Au) is deposited on top of the mesas. The spin-polarized current is driven along the c-axis of the mesas through a ferromagnetic Co layer and the hysteretic quasiparticle branches are observed at 4.2 K. Magnetic field evolution of hysteretic quasiparticle branches is obtained to examine the effect of injected spin-polarized current on intrinsic Josephson junction characteristics. It is observed that there is a gradual distribution in quasiparticle branches with the application of magnetic field and increasing field reduces the switching current progressively.

    Investigation of the Tunneling Spectra in Hgbr2-Intercalated Bi-2212 Single Crystals Below and Above Tc
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Kurter, Cihan; Mazur, Daniel; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Hinks, David G.; Gray, Kenneth E.
    Interlayer tunneling spectroscopy measurements were performed on mesa arrays of Bi-2212 single crystals, intercalated with HgBr2. Tunneling conductances were obtained over a wide temperature range to examine the spectral features, especially the behavior of the quasiparticle peaks corresponding to superconducting energy gaps (SGs). Experimental spectra showed that gap-like features are still present even for the temperatures far above the transition temperature, Tc. This evidence is consistent with the idea that the SG evolves into a pseudogap above Tc for HgBr2-intercalated Bi-2212 single crystals.

    Fabrication of Array of Mesas on Superconducting Bi2sr 2cacu2o8+? Single Crystals
    (National Institute of Optoelectronics, 2005) Kurter, Cihan; Özyüzer, Lütfi
    The superconducting properties of multi-layered high temperature superconductors (HTS) result mainly from the CuO2 planes, while the other structural components behave simply as charge reservoirs. Using these perfect-layered structures of HTS, arrays of mesas have been fabricated on the surfaces of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ (Bi2212) single crystals using hotolithography and argon ion beam etching techniques. These arrays have current-voltage (I-V) characteristics that consist of some branches corresponding to different intrinsic Josephson junctions in the mesas, The surface topography and heights of the mesas were examined with atomic force microscopy. Due to the small mesa area, conventional wire bonding techniques are not applicable. A novel method, point contact tunneling apparatus with a sharp Au tip, was used to obtain the I-V characteristics of the fabricated intrinsic Josephson junctions, below the critical temperature of Bi2212. Since the ultimate goal was to obtain an ordered group of mesas with small lateral dimensions, to eliminate heating effects during I-V measurements, we showed that submicron-sized mesas could be characterized by the new technique.
