However, the study of such HTS cuprates has uncovered that unlike the s-wave order parameter of the low Tc, an angle dependent dx2-y2 wave function is the dominant order parameter in such compounds. This symmetry causes low energy surface bound states, detrimental for applications, except at (100) oriented surfaces. It is therefore essential to have a smooth and well oriented surface of the crystallographic a-axis (100). In this work we present a study of an unconventional way to attain such surfaces in the form of a-axis outgrowth on a c-axis surface of sputtered Y1-xCaxBa2Cu3O7-d thin film. The grains topography was tested using X-ray, SEM and AFM together with Point Contact and Tunnel Junctions measurements. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0404487 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
