    Reply To "comment on 'counterintuitive Consequence of Heating in Strongly-Driven Intrinsic Junctions of Bi2sr2cacu 2o8+? Mesas'"
    (American Physical Society, 2011) Kurter, Cihan; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Proslier, Thomas; Zasadzinski, John F.; Hinks, David G.; Gray, Kenneth E.
    The main criticism raised in the preceding Comment concerns our suggestion that sharp conduction peaks in Bi 2Sr 2CaCu 2O 8+δ mesas, along with absent dip-hump features, may, in general, be a result of self-heating. The author points to the variety of experimental configurations, matrix-element effects, and doping dependencies that might allow a diversity of conductance spectra. We argue that numerous mesa studies (with fixed matrix elements) firmly establish the systematic development of sharp conductance peaks with increased self-heating, and thus, the issue of nonuniversality of tunneling characteristics is not relevant. The author mentions a number of studies that show that the mesa is superconducting near the conductance peak voltage. This is not in dispute and indicates a misinterpretation of our analysis that is clarified here. To address further comments on the technical details of our heating model, we reiterate that our conclusions are independent of our model but rather are based solely on experimental data that are not in dispute.

    Modeling Study of the Dip-Hump Feature in Bi2 Sr2 Cacu2 O8+? Tunneling Spectroscopy
    (American Physical Society, 2006) Romano, Pierom; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Yusof, Zikri; Kurter, Cihan; Zasadzinski, John F.
    The tunneling spectra of high-temperature superconductors on Bi2 Sr2 CaCu2 O8+δ (Bi-2212) reproducibly show a high-bias structure in the form of a dip-hump at voltages higher than the gap voltage. Of central concern is whether this feature originates from the normal state background or is intrinsic to the superconducting mechanism. We address this issue by generating a set of model conductance curves-a "normal state" conductance that takes into account effects such as the band structure and a possible pseudogap, and a pure superconducting state conductance. When combined, the result shows that the dip-hump feature present in the experimental conductance curves cannot be naively attributed to a normal state effect. In particular, strong dip features found in superconductor-insulator-superconductor data on optimally doped Bi-2212, including negative dI dV, cannot be a consequence of an extrinsic pseudogap. However, such features can easily arise from state-conserving deviations in the superconducting density of states, e.g., from strong-coupling effects.

    Spin Polarized and Degenerate Tunneling Spectra in Intrinsic Josephson Junctions of Bi2212
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2007) Özdemir, Mustafa; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Kurter, Cihan
    Tunneling characteristics of HgBr2 intercalated superconducting Bi2212 single crystals have been obtained by using 10×10 μm2 intrinsic Josephson junction stacks, so called mesa structures. The spin degenerate current is driven along the c-axis with Au layer using point contact tunneling assembly at 4,2 K. The spin polarized current is also driven along the c-axis of crystals with Au/Co/Au multilayer. In order to understand the role of ferromagnetic layer (Co), quasiparticle branches are examined with and without magnetic field. The magnetic field evolution of switching currents are obtained for gaining further insight about the spin injection through the stack

    Large Energy Gaps in Ca C6 From Tunneling Spectroscopy: Possible Evidence of Strong-Coupling Superconductivity
    (American Physical Society, 2007) Kurter, Cihan; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Mazur, Daniel; Zasadzinski, John F.; Rosenmann, Daniel; Claus, Helmut; Hinks, David G.; Gray, Kenneth E.
    Tunneling in Ca C6 crystals reproducibly reveals superconducting gaps Δ of 2.3±0.2 meV that are ∼40% larger than reported earlier. In an isotropic s -wave scenario, that puts Ca C6 into the class of very strongly coupled superconductors, since 2Δ k Tc ∼4.6, implying that soft Ca phonons are primarily involved in the superconductivity. This conclusion explains the relatively large Ca isotope effect found recently for Ca C6, but it could also signal a strong anisotropy in the electron-phonon interaction.
