Transport Properties of Thin Layers of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ

ORAL

Abstract

Many of the high temperature superconductors have layered atomic structures. In Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ (BSCCO), van der Waals interaction between adjacent bismuth-oxygen layers makes the crystal easily cleavable. Few-layer BSCCO is thus an ideal system for investigating high temperature superconductivity in the two-dimensional limit. By fabricating samples in an inert atmosphere, we are able to obtain thin layers of exfoliated BSCCO samples and to probe the evolution of superconductivity as the dimenionality is reduced.
