With the Resonance Spin Excitation(American Physical Society, 2001) Zasadzinski, John F.; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Miyakawa, Nobuaki; Gray, Kenneth E.; Hinks, David G.; Kendziora, Christopher A.New break-junction tunneling data are reported in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ over a wide range of hole concentration from underdoped (Tc=74k) to optimal doped (Tc=95k) to overdoped (Tc=48k). The conductances exhibit sharp dips at a voltage, Ω/e, measured with respect to the superconducting gap. Clear trends are found such that the dip strength is maximum at optimal doping and that Ω scales as 4.9kTc over the entire doping range. These features link the dip to the resonance spin excitation and suggest quasiparticle interactions with this mode are important for superconductivity.Article Citation - WoS: 54Citation - Scopus: 55Persistence of Strong Electron Coupling To a Narrow Boson Spectrum in Overdoped Bi2sr2cacu2o8+î Tunneling Data(American Physical Society, 2006) Zasadzinski, John F.; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Coffey, L.; Gray, Kenneth E.; Hinks, David G.; Kendziora, Christopher A.A d-wave, Eliashberg analysis of break-junction and STM tunneling spectra on Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+Î (Bi2212) reveals that the spectral dip feature is directly linked to strong electronic coupling to a narrow boson spectrum, evidenced by a large peak in I'2F(I). The tunneling dip feature remains robust in the overdoped regime of Bi2212 with bulk Tc values of 56Â Ka62Â K. This is contrary to recent optical conductivity measurements of the self-energy that suggest the narrow boson spectrum disappears in overdoped Bi2212 and therefore cannot be essential for the pairing mechanism. The discrepancy is resolved by considering the way each technique probes the electron self-energy, in particular, the unique sensitivity of tunneling to the off-diagonal or pairing part of the self-energy.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 30Absence of Pseudogap in Heavily Overdoped Bi2sr2cacu2o8+? From Tunneling Spectroscopy of Break Junctions(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2002) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Zasadzinski, John F.; Gray, Kenneth E.; Kendziora, Christopher A.; Miyakawa, NobuakiWe report tunneling spectroscopy of superconductor-insulator-superconductor break junctions on heavily overdoped Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ with Tc = 56 K. At T ≪ Tc, the junction conductances display well-defined quasiparticle peaks at ±2Δ and in some cases a Josephson current at zero bias. Gap values as small as Δ = 10.5 meV have been observed leading to 2Δ/kTc near the BCS limit for dx2-y2 pairing. Temperature dependence of the gap magnitude, Δ(T), follows the BCS relation and both the quasiparticle gap and Josephson current vanish for T > Tc. Above Tc, the tunneling conductance shows a flat background without any indication of a pseudogap near the Fermi level.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Aspects of the Tunneling Dip Feature in Bi2sr2cacu2o8+? and Its Relation To the Resonance Spin Excitation(Elsevier Ltd., 2002) Zasadzinski, John F.; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Miyakawa, Nobuaki; Gray, Kenneth E.; Hinks, David G.; Kendziora, Christopher A.Break-junction tunneling data are reported in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ over a wide range of hole concentration from underdoped to overdoped. The strong conductance peaks in the superconducting state reveal a single gap consistent with d-wave symmetry. In addition, sharp dips are observed at a voltage, Ω/□, measured with respect to the gap edge. These features are shown to be reproduced in other junction types from the literature including atomically resolved STM and □-axis mesas, establishing their intrinsic character. Trends are observed with doping and temperature which link the dip to the resonance spin excitation and indicate that the quasiparticles are strongly coupled to this mode.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Tunneling Spectroscopy of Heavily Underdoped Crystals of Bi2sr2cacu2o8-?(Elsevier Ltd., 2000) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Zasadzinski, John F.; Miyakawa, Nobuaki; Kendziora, Christopher A.; Sha, J.; Hinks, David G.; Gray, Kenneth E.Crystals of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ with optimal Tc=95 K have been underdoped using two different methods and the superconducting gaps have been obtained by tunneling. In some cases, three different tunneling geometries have been utilized: point contact, STM and break junctions. The first doping method involves control of the oxygen content by annealing in various partial pressures of oxygen. These crystals exhibit a narrow spread of gap values over a wide doping range from overdoped (Tc=56 K) to underdoped with Tc=70 K. However, for underdoped crystals with Tc midpoints in the range 25 K - 63 K, there is a dramatic increase in the spread of gap values which may signal the development of static phase separation of either chemical or electronic origin. To avoid possible chemical phase separation, we have explored another doping procedure which incorporates Dy substitution on the Ca site. These crystals exhibit a relatively narrow superconducting transition width and some preliminary tunneling spectra will be presented.Article Citation - WoS: 53Quasiparticle and Josephson Tunneling of Overdoped Bi2sr2cacu2o8+? Single Crystals(American Physical Society, 2000) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Zasadzinski, John F.; Kendziora, Christopher A.; Gray, Kenneth E.The point contact tunneling technique is used to examine quasiparticle and Josephson currents in overdoped Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ (Bi-2212) single crystals with bulk Tc values ranging from 82 K down to 62 K. Superconductor-insulator-normal-metal (SIN) tunnel junctions are formed between Bi-2212 crystals and a Au tip, which display well-resolved quasiparticle gap features including sharp conductance peaks. Reproducible superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) tunnel junctions are also obtained between two pieces of the Bi-2212 crystals, resulting in simultaneous quasiparticle and Josephson currents. The dynamic conductances of both SIN and SIS junctions are qualitatively similar to those found on optimally doped Bi-2212, but with reduced gap values, e.g., Δ = 15-20 meV for Tc = 62 K. Fits to the conductance data in the gap region are obtained using a model with dx2-y2 symmetry, and it is shown that this provides a better fit than s-wave symmetry. Both SIN and SIS tunneling conductances also display dip and hump features at high bias voltages similar to those found on optimal and underdoped crystals, indicating that these are intrinsic properties of the quasiparticles. The SIS data indicate that these features appear to be part of a larger spectrum that extends out to 300-400 mV. The Josephson current has been measured for 13 SIS junctions on the 62 K crystals with resistances varying over two decades. It is found that the maximum value depends on junction resistance in a manner consistent with Ambegaokar-Baratoff theory, but with a reduced IcRn product.Article Citation - WoS: 200Citation - Scopus: 212Predominantly Superconducting Origin of Large Energy Gaps in Underdoped Bi2sr2cacu2o8+? From Tunneling Spectroscopy(American Physical Society, 1999) Miyakawa, Nobuaki; Zasadzinski, John F.; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Guptasarma, Prasenjit; Hinks, David G.; Kendziora, Christopher A.; Gray, Kenneth E.New tunneling data are reported in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ which show quasiparticle excitation gaps, Δ, reaching values as high as 60 meV for underdoped crystals with Tc = 70 K. These energy gaps are nearly 3 times larger than those of overdoped crystals with similar Tc. Despite the large differences in gap magnitude, the tunneling spectra display qualitatively similar characteristics over the entire doping range. Detailed examination of the spectra, including the Josephson IcRn product measured in break junctions, indicates that these energy gaps are predominantly of superconducting origin.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Simultaneous Quasiparticle and Josephson Tunneling in Bscco-2212 Break Junctions(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 1999) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Miyakawa, Nobuaki; Zasadzinski, John F.; Yusof, Zikri M.; Romano, Pierom; Kendziora, Christopher A.; Hinks, David G.; Gray, Kenneth E.Tunneling measurements are reported for superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) break junctions on underdoped, optimally-doped, and overdoped single crystals of tSrsCaCiOs-).,! (Bi2212). The junction I -V characteristics exhibit welldefined quasiparticle current jumps at eV = 2A as well as hysteretic Josephson currents. The quasiparticle branch has been analyzed in the framework of dxa_y2 (d-wave) superconductivity and indicates that there is preferential tunneling along the lobe directions of the d-wave gap. For overdoped Bi-2212 with TC-62 K, the Josephson current is measured as a function of junction resistance, Rn, which varied by two orders of magnitude (1 kO to 100 kO). IcRn product is proportional to the 0.47 power of /c and displays a maximum of 7.0 mV. When the hole doping is decreased from overdoped (Tc=62 K) to the underdoped regime (Tc=70 K), the average IcRn product increases as does the quasiparticle gap. The maximum IcRn is ~ 40% of the A/e at each doping level, with a value as high as 25 mV in underdoped Bi-2212.
