    　View Summary

    We have investigated the influence of silver on crystallization and oxygenation or the spin ladder compound La2Cu2O5 (four-leg) single crystals. Large La2Cu2O5 single crystals were successfully grown from charges containing A920 by a self-flux method. Electrical resistivity of the silver grown La2Cu2O5 single crystals (parallel tob-axis) has been found to be about three orders of magnitude lower when compared with the similar crystals grown without silver. Characterizations with optical microscope, XRD, EPMA and HRTEM indicate that the silver does not exist either in free state in the crystal or in the crystal lattice. The results show that the silver facilitates oxygenation in La2Cu2O5 crystals during their growth. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

    　View Summary

    The crystallization region of La8Cu7O19 exists in a narrow temperature (1045-1050 degreesC) and composition range (1:4.5-1:5.0; La2O3:CuO molar ratio) in the La2O3-CuO system in an air ambient. In this narrow range, we have succeeded in growing large La8Cu7O19 single crystals, for the first time, by a modified slow cooling method. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that La8Cu7O19 crystallizes in a monoclinic structure with space group C2/c and has the lattice parameters a = 13.82(7) Angstrom, b = 3.734(8) Angstrom, c = 34.77(10) Angstrom, and beta = 99.3(4)degrees. The electrical transport behavior of the as-grown and hole-doped La8Cu7O19 single crystals are semiconducting. A lowest resistivity of 11.0 m Omega -cm is measured at 293 K along the ladder direction (// b-axis) for the hole-doped samples. (C) 2001 Academic Press.

    　View Summary

    The temperature and doping dependence of the tunneling spectrum of Bi2.1Sr1.9CaCu2Ox single crystals was obtained by using a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope. Above Tc, for x≤8.27, the tunneling density of states shows a clear gap-like feature with a larger gap value than the superconducting one, while for x&gt
    8.27, it shows the feature expected from the conventional superconducting fluctuation (SCF). We determined the SCF component in the static susceptibility (χ). By subtracting the effect of the SCF from χ, we confirmed that the two pseudogap phase boundaries determined by the tunneling and χ coincide with each other.

    C. Sekar, T. Watanabe, A. Matsuda

    Journal of Crystal Growth   212 ( 1 ) 142 - 147  2000

    　View Summary

    Crystallization of La2Cu2O5 has been investigated in the La2O3-CUO system for various starting compositions both in air and oxygen atmospheres. In air, we find that there exists a new region of crystallization of La8Cu7O19 phase, just above that of La2Cu2O5. However, this region vanishes completely in flowing-oxygen atmosphere. By utilizing this, large single crystals of the 4-leg spin-ladder compound La2Cu2O5 have been successfully grown from CuO flux by the slow cooling method. Room-temperature resistivity parallel to the ladder direction (∥b) of the as-grown crystals is estimated to be 1.7×103 Ω cm. A significant decrease in the resistivity (798 mΩ cm at 300 K) is observed upon hole doping by means of high oxygen pressure annealing (approximately 400 atm) using a hot isostatic pressing furnace. However, no transition was observed from the semiconducting behavior.

  • 強相関電子系における不均一電子状態の低音STMによる研究

    2004  

    　View Summary

    　本研究は、低温STMを用いて高温超伝導体の超伝導状態で観測される超伝導ギャップの不均一分布の起源をさぐる目的で企画された。担当者は2004年度新任で、本計画に使用する低温STM装置は、前任の研究機関(NTT物性科学基礎研究所)より貸与を受け、早稲田大学に移設・再構築する予定であった。当初の研究の企画は、再稼働させた実験装置をベースに、装置を改造し、不均一効果に対する結晶の歪み効果を調べる計画になっている。計画自体は、1年で成果を出せる性格のものでなく、数年間かけて実施することが前提になる。　担当者が早稲田大学に着任後、実験装置の移設が実現したのが2004年9月であり、移設後順次電源工事、ガス配管工事、測定用ネットワーク構築などのユーティリティ接続作業を行い、2004年11月頃に常温用STM装置、さらに12月頃にSTM装置一号機を稼働状態にした。本特定課題で提供された資金のほとんどは、以上の実験装置再稼働のための機器購入や装置改修にあてられた。その後、常温用STM装置においては、超高真空下で、(1)高温超伝導体のBi-2223(Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+d), (2) Bi系層状Co酸化物(Bi2Sr2Co2Ox)、の表面観測を開始し、結果はまだ予備的であるが、何れも格子像を得る事に成功した。両物質とも格子像を得る事自体世界初の試みである。特に、後者のCo層状酸化物は、電子状態の解明が進んでおらず、新たな発見が期待される。今後さらに精度の高い観測を行い、低温測定と合わせて電子状態の解明を進める。低温用STMについても、稼働状態になって以来、液体窒素温度77Kでの測定に成功し、格子像も徐々に取れるようになってきたが、稼働を始めてからまだ日が浅く、物理的に意味のある成果はまだ出ていない。装置的にも、まだ完全な状態とは言えず、電気的ノイズの低減が重要な課題である。その後、本来の特定課題の研究テーマである、不均一性と歪み効果の関係について調べてゆく予定である。
