Download or read book Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy Study of Spin Fluctuations in the Cuprate Superconductors written by Francisco Restrepo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis makes significant advances towards an understanding of superconductivity in the cuprate family of unconventional, high-temperature superconductors. Even though the high-temperature superconductors were discovered over 35 years ago, there is not yet a general consensus on an acceptable theory of superconductivity in these materials. One of the early proposals suggested that collective magnetic excitations of the conduction electrons could lead them to form pairs, which in turn condense to form the superconducting state at a critical temperature Tc. Quantitative calculations of Tc using experimental data were, however, not available to verify the applicability of this magnetic mechanism. In this thesis, the author constructed an angle-resolved photoemission apparatus that could provide sufficiently accurate data of the electronic excitation spectra of samples in the normal state, data which was furthermore unusually devoid of any surface contamination. The author also applied the Bethe-Salpeter method to his uncommonly pristine and precise normal state data, and was able to predict the approximate superconducting transition temperatures of different samples. This rare combination of experiment with sophisticated theoretical calculations leads to the conclusion that antiferromagnetic correlations are a viable candidate for the pairing interaction in the cuprate superconductors.

Download or read book Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy on High Temperature Superconductors written by Junfeng He and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book mainly focuses on the study of the high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ (Bi2212) and single-layer FeSe film grown on SrTiO3 (STO) substrate by means of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). It provides the first electronic evidence for the origin of the anomalous high-temperature superconductivity in single-layer FeSe grown on SrTiO3 substrate. Two coexisted sharp-mode couplings have been identified in superconducting Bi2212. The first ARPES study on single-layer FeSe/STO films has provided key insights into the electronic origin of superconductivity in this system. A phase diagram and electronic indication of high Tc and insulator to superconductor crossover have been established in the single-layer FeSe/STO films. Readers will find essential information on the techniques used and interesting physical phenomena observed by ARPES.

Book Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy Studies of 2D Material Heterostructures

Download or read book Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy Studies of 2D Material Heterostructures written by Eryin Wang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy studies on novel interfacial phenomena in three typical two-dimensional material heterostructures: graphene/h-BN, twisted bilayer graphene, and topological insulator/high-temperature superconductors. Since the discovery of graphene, two-dimensional materials have proven to be quite a large “family”. As an alternative to searching for other family members with distinct properties, the combination of two-dimensional (2D) materials to construct heterostructures offers a new platform for achieving new quantum phenomena, exploring new physics, and designing new quantum devices. By stacking different 2D materials together and utilizing interfacial periodical potential and order-parameter coupling, the resulting heterostructure’s electronic properties can be tuned to achieve novel properties distinct from those of its constituent materials. This book offers a valuable reference guide for all researchers and students working in the area of condensed matter physics and materials science.

Book Angle resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy  ARPES  Studies of Cuprate Superconductors

Download or read book Angle resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy ARPES Studies of Cuprate Superconductors written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation is comprised of three different angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) studies on cuprate superconductors. The first study compares the band structure from two different single layer cuprates Tl2Ba2CuO6+[delta] (Tl2201) Tc, max ~95 K and (Bi1.35Pb0.85)(Sr1.47La0.38)CuO6+[delta] (Bi2201) Tc, max 35 K. The aim of the study was to provide some insight into the reasons why single layer cuprate's maximum transition temperatures are so different. The study found two major di erences in the band structure. First, the Fermi surface segments close to ([pi],0) are more parallel in Tl2201 than in Bi2201. Second, the shadow band usually related to crystal structure is only present in Bi2201, but absent in higher Tc Tl2201. The second study looks at the different ways of doping Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+[delta] (Bi2212) in-situ by only changing the post bake-out vacuum conditions and temperature. The aim of the study is to systematically look into the generally overlooked experimental conditions that change the doping of a cleaved sample in ultra high vacuum (UHV) experiments. The study found two major experimental facts. First, in inadequate UHV conditions the carrier concentration of Bi2212 increases with time, due to the absorption of oxygen from CO2/CO molecules, prime contaminants present in UHV systems. Second, in a very clean UHV system at elevated temperatures (above about 200 K), the carrier concentration decreases due to the loss of oxygen atoms from the Bi-O layer. The final study probed the particle-hole symmetry of the pseudogap phase in high temperature superconducting cuprates by looking at the thermally excited bands above the Fermi level. The data showed a particle-hole symmetric pseudogap which symmetrically closes away from the nested FS before the node. The data is consistent with a charge density wave (CDW) origin of the pseudogap, similar to STM checkerboard patterns in the pseudogap state.

Book Low Energy Excitations in Cuprate High Temperature Superconductors

Download or read book Low Energy Excitations in Cuprate High Temperature Superconductors written by Inna Vishik and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mechanism of superconductivity in the cuprate high temperature superconductors is an enduring problem in condensed matter physics, and a detailed experimental phenomenology is a crucial starting point for microscopic understanding. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measures electronic structure in momentum-space. Low-energy excitations in the cuprates, including the superconducting gap, are known to be anisotropic in momentum space, so the momentum resolution afforded by ARPES is key to understanding the physics and uncovering the mechanism. In this dissertation, I present experiments which pursue the cuprate superconductivity problem from several angles: understanding electron-boson coupling which may be involved in mediating superconductivity (Chapters 6 and 7 and Appendix B), understanding the momentum-space structure of the normal state pseudogap (Chapter 5 and Appendix A), understanding how superconductivity coexists with the pseudogap and other phases (Chapters 3 and 4). Much of this work took advantage of a recent development in ARPES technology, using a UV laser as a light source, which allows experiments to be performed with superior energy and momentum resolution. These experiments highlight the wealth of information that is available in ARPES data, including dispersions, scattering rates, and spectral gaps, and they demonstrate the importance of exploring these variables comprehensively as a function of temperature, doping, and momentum.

Download or read book High Resolution Photoemission Studies of Interfaces in High Tc Superconductors written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our research has involved using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) as a nano-scale probe of the electronic structure of surfaces and interfaces of high-temperature superconductors. Photoemission has provided unique and valuable information because of its surface sensitivity, excellent energy resolution, and ability to detect core-level chemical shifts. The information has strong implications for a fundamental understanding of the electronic structure of the cuprates as well as the construction of practical devices such as Josephson junctions. We will focus on: (1) description of custom-designed thin film samples of high temperature superconductors (HTSC) and the development of methods to study them with ARPES, (2) electronic structure measurements using ARPES, including the measurement of energy gaps, (3) the implications for characteristics of devices using HTSC, and (4) proximity effect searches.
