We have measured coherent terahertz emission spectra from Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+\delta\ mesa devices, as a function of temperature and mesa bias voltage. The emission frequency is found to be tunable by up to 12% by varying the temperature and bias…

I numerically analyze Joule heating in large Bi2212 mesas while taking into account typical thermal conductivities and their temperature dependencies of all the materials involved in the heat dissipation and its removal. Such mesas are used…

Anomalously high and sharp peaks in the conductance of intrinsic Josephson junctions in Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{8+\delta}$ (Bi2212) mesas have been universally interpreted as superconducting energy gaps, but here we show they are a…

We study analytically and numerically a problem of self-heating in small mesa structures. Our results show that the self-heating is proportional to a characteristic in-plane size of the mesa. Experimental data for small high-$T_c$…

Stacks of intrinsic Josephson junctions (IJJs) made from high-temperature superconductors such as Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CaCu_{2}O_{8+\delta} (Bi-2212) are a promising source of coherent continuous-wave terahertz radiation. It is thought that at…

Using advanced sample engineering we performed simultaneous measurement of intrinsic (interlayer) tunnelling characteristics and in-situ monitoring of temperature in small Bi-2212 mesa structures. Together with a systematic study of…

We propose an approach to control the polarization of terahertz (THz) radiation from intrinsic Josephson-junction stacks in single crystalline high-temperature superconductor $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta}$. By monolithically controlling the…

In this study, we investigated the terahertz radiation from a truncated edge square mesa structure made from a superconducting Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CaCu_{2}O_{8+{\delta}} . Using a commercial software, the polarization characteristics were…

The c-axis tunneling properties of both pristine Bi2212 and its HgBr$_2$ intercalate have been measured in the temperature range 4.2 - 250 K. Lithographically patterned 7-10 unit-cell heigh mesa structures on the surfaces of these single…

Terahertz radiation from the mesa structures of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+\delta}$ is detected in samples with thin electrodes $< 100$ nm. In samples with thick electrodes $\simeq$ 400 nm, neither radiations nor voltage jumps in…

Impedance matching and heat management are important factors influencing performance of THz sources. In this work we analyze thermal and radiative properties of such devices based on mesa structures of a layered high-temperature…

Subterahertz radiation emitted from a variety of short rectangular-, square-, and disk-shaped mesas of intrinsic Josephson junctions fabricated from a Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d single crystal was studied from the observed I-V characteristics,…

We used one-dimensional coupled sine-Gordon equations combined with heat diffusion equations to numerically investigate the thermal and electromagnetic properties of a $300\,\mu\mathrm{m}$ long intrinsic Josephson junction stack consisting…

At high enough input power in stacks of Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O8 intrinsic Josephson junctions a hot spot (a region heated to above the superconducting transition temperature) coexists with regions still in the superconducting state. In the…

We describe two experimental approaches to circumvent the problem of self-heating in IV measurements on small mesa samples of 2212-BSCCO. Simultaneous dc and temperature measurements have been performed, allowing corrections for heating to…

The THz radiation emitted from rectangular mesas of single-crystal $\mathrm{Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta}}$ was studied using angular distribution measurements and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Unlike the recent theoretical…

We fabricated small-size stacks on the surface of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+x}$ (BSCCO-2212) single crystals with the bulk transition temperature $T_c$$\simeq$90 K, each containing a few intrinsic Josephson junctions. Below a critical…

A wide-band cryogenic amplifier measurement system for time-resolved four-point IV-characteristic measurements on 2212-BSCCO mesa structures is described. We present measurements which demonstrate the importance of self-heating on 50 ns…

We used 2D coupled sine-Gordon equations combined with 3D heat diffusion equations to numerically investigate the thermal and electromagnetic properties of a $250 \times 70\,\mu\mathrm{m}^2$ intrinsic Josephson junction stack. The 700…

In a recent paper [Phys.Rev.B 81, 224518 (2010)], C. Kurter et al, analyzed the effect of strong self-heating in large-area Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+\delta}$ (Bi-2212) mesa structures. They conclude that $dI/dV$ conductance peaks in their…
