Title Interrelation between persistent photoconductivity and oxygen order in GdBa2Cu3Ox thin films Type Journal Article
Year 1997 Publication Physical Review B – Condensed Matter and Materials Physics Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. B Condens. Matter Mater. Phys.
Volume 56 Issue 7 Pages (down) 3552-3555
Keywords
Abstract We study the metastable states induced by photoexcitation, oxygen disorder, and both effects combined in superconducting GdBa2Cu3Ox thin films. The states are identified by the temperature dependence of the resistivity. The relaxation dynamics is characterized through the time evolution of the conductivity. The results show that photoexcitation and oxygen disorder behave as noninteracting and do not cancel each other out. However, in both cases the relaxation dynamics is related to oxygen movement .

Title Raman-study of photoinduced chain-oxygen ordering in RBa2Cu3O7-delta Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON APPLIED SUPERCONDUCTIVITY Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13 Issue 2 Pages (down) 3192-3195
Keywords
Abstract We investigated Raman-forbidden signals in RBa2Cu3O7-delta with R = Y or Pr, which lose intensity under illumination at low temperatures. These defect-induced,peaks are only visible in oxygen-deficient material and for light polarized parallel to the copper-oxygen chains along the material's b-axis. In a first, two-laser based experiment we established that the bleaching effect of the light is polarization dependent as well. From this and other known properties we conclude that the signal is connected to the copper-oxygen chains, reflecting their state of disorder, and is thus closely related to aging and to the persistent photoconductivity effect in the material. In a second set of experiments we followed the temperature dependence of the Raman spectra and the intensity decrease.

Title Hall effect in La0.6Sr0.4MnO3 thin films Type Journal Article
Year 2004 Publication JOURNAL OF MAGNETISM AND MAGNETIC MATERIALS Abbreviated Journal
Volume 272 Issue Pages (down) 1836-1838
Keywords
Abstract We studied the temperature and thickness dependence of the transport properties of La0.6Sr0.4MnO3 films. Hall voltage and magnetoresistance measurements on 10 and 150 nm thick films were performed with this porpose. From the ordinary Hall component, we calculated the density of carriers, which has hole-character and is systematically lower than that expected from the chemical composition of the manganite in both samples. Localization effects observed at low temperature in the resistivity of the thinner film, associated with the substrate-induced disorder, are correlated with a decrease of the density of carriers.

Title Inducing superconductivity at a nanoscale: Photodoping with a near- field scanning optical microscope Type Journal Article
Year 1999 Publication Journal of Microscopy Abbreviated Journal J. Microsc.
Volume 194 Issue 2-3 Pages (down) 407-411
Keywords High critical temperature superconductors; Near-field microscopy; Photoconductivity; Photoinduced superconductivity; barium; copper derivative; gadolinium; nanoparticle; conductance; conference paper; crystal structure; crystallography; density; fiber optics; film; illumination; magnetic field; photoactivation; priority journal; reflectometry; scanning near field optical microscopy; temperature
Abstract The local modification of an insulating GdBa2Cu3O6.5 thin film, made superconducting by illumination with a near-field scanning optical microscope (NSOM), is reported. A 100-nm aperture NSOM probe acts as a sub- wavelength light source of wavelength ?(exc)=480-650 nm, locally generating photocarriers in an otherwise insulating GdBa2-Cu3O6.5 thin film. Of the photogenerated electron-hole pairs, electrons are trapped in the crystallographic lattice, defining an electrostatic confining potential to enable the holes to move. Reflectance measurements at ? = 1.55 ?m at room temperature show that photocarriers can be induced and constrained to move on a ?? 200 nm scale for all investigated ?(exc). Photogenerated wires present a superconducting critical temperature T(c) = 12 K with a critical current density J(c) = 104 A cm-2. Exploiting the flexibility provided by photodoping through a NSOM probe, a junction was written by photodoping a wire with a narrow (? 50 nm) under-illuminated gap. The strong magnetic field modulation of the critical current provides a clear signature of the existence of a Josephson effect in the junction.

Title Oxygen overdoping in superconducting and non-superconducting Y1-xPrxBa2Cu3Oy Type Journal Article
Year 2002 Publication PHYSICA B-CONDENSED MATTER Abbreviated Journal
Volume 320 Issue 1-4 Pages (down) 333-336
Keywords
Abstract We present the evolution of magnetic and structural properties of Y1-xPrxBa2Cu3Oy (xsimilar to0.5 and x = 1) single crystals and polycrystalline materials when the oxygen concentration y is varied from under- to overdoping. We have found a monotonous evolution of the Pr Neel temperature for x = 1 samples and a maximum of the superconducting critical temperature for the xsimilar to0.5 samples. The structural properties as detected by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy show no instabilities when crossing the optimal doping region as was found in the x = 0 material.

Title Bose-glass-like phases in oriented-twin YBa2Cu3O7-? crystals Type Journal Article
Year 2004 Publication Journal of Low Temperature Physics Abbreviated Journal J. Low Temp. Phys.
Volume 135 Issue 1-2 Pages (down) 131-134
Keywords Low temperature effects; Magnetic fields; Superconducting materials; Bose-glass phases; Planar random defect array; Yttrium barium copper oxides; physics
Abstract We experimentally study the dynamical response of the superconducting vortex system near the solid-liquid transition by applying forces parallel and perpendicular to a planar random defect array. Our results show that for magnetic fields above a certain critical field Hcr'? 4 T the solid glassy vortex phase in YBa2Cu3O7-? crystals with oriented twin planes does not correspond to the so-called Bose-glass phase.

Title Photoinduced superconducting nanowires in GdBa2Cu3O6.5 films Type Journal Article
Year 1998 Publication Applied Physics Letters Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 73 Issue 1 Pages (down) 120-122
Keywords
Abstract We report the fabrication of high-Tc superconducting wires by photodoping a GdBa2Cu3O6.5 thin film. An optical near-field probe was used to locally excite carriers in the system at room temperature. Trapping of the photogenerated electrons define a confining potential for the conducting holes in the CuO planes. Spatially resolved reflectance measurements show the photogenerated nanowires to be ?250 nm wide. Electron diffusion, before electron capture, is believed to be responsible for the observed width of the wires.
