We reveal that the temperature dependence of the basal-plane normal-state electrical resistance of optimally doped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ single crystals can be with great accuracy approximated within the framework of the model of s-d…

Co-doped BaFe2As2 has been previously shown to have an unusually significant improvement of Tc (up to 2 K, or almost 10%) with annealing 1-2 weeks at 700 or 800 C, where such annealing conditions are insufficient to allow significant atomic…

Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2O8+d (Bi-2212) thin films with thicknesses less than 50 nm (<20 unit cells) are grown by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) onto (001) LaAlO3 (LAO) single crystal substrates. Phase-pure and smooth c-axis oriented Bi-2212 films with…

Few-unit cell thick Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+x}$ (Bi-2212) layers have recently attracted much interest due to their extreme anisotropy and two-dimensional superconductivity, although they are typically susceptible to ambient conditions.…

An angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy study was conducted on BiSrCaCuZnO. A small amount of Zn substitution for Cu almost completely suppresses the otherwise sharp spectral peak along the (0,0) to (pi,pi) direction in BiSrCaCuZnO,…

A study of temperature dependences of the upper critical field B_{c2}(T) and surface impedance Z(T)=R(T)+iX(T) in Ba_{1-x}K_xBiO_3 single crystals that have transition temperatures in the range 6 < T_c < 32 K (roughly 0.6>x>0.4) reveals a…

Ruthenium dioxide (RuO$_2$) thin films were synthesized by Chemical Solution Deposition (CSD) on silicon substrates using only water and acetic acid as solvents. The microstructure, phase-purity, electrical and optical properties as well as…

We have measured the temperature dependence of gap features revealed by Andreev reflection Delta_s and by tunneling Delta in the ab-plane of optimal and slightly overdoped microcrystals of (BiPb)2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 (Bi2223) with critical…

Superconductivity has been explored in single crystals of the Ni-doped FeAs-compound SrFe2-xNixAs2 grown by self-flux solution method. The antiferromagnetic order associated with the magnetostructural transition of the parent compound…

We have measured the complex conductivity of a BSCCO(2212) thin film between 0.2 and 1.0 THz. We find the conductivity in the superconducting state to be well described as the sum of contributions from quasiparticles, the condensate, and…

In this work we studied the synthesis of BSCCO-2212 superconducting phase associating a quite similar method developed by Pechini (PM) with the microwave-assisted hydrothermal method, MAH. To study the influence of MAH on the properties of…

Single crystals of the layered superconductor Bi2Sr2(Ca1-xLax)Cu2O8+d were successfully grown out by a self-flux method. Upon La-doping, the c-axis contracts but the structure remains stable up to the critical concentration xc, above which…

We have used Rietveld refinement technique to determine the extent of intergrowth of Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CuO$_{6+x}$ phase and co-crystallization of competing phases in a high temperature superconductor Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{8+x}$…

High quality large Bi$_2$Sr$_{2-x}$La$_{x}$CuO$_6$(La-Bi2201) single crystals have been successfully grown by the traveling solvent floating zone technique. The samples are characterized by compositional and structural analyzes and their…

We report a study of magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity as a function of temperature and magnetic field in superconducting crystals of La$_{2-x}$Ca$_{1+x}$Cu$_{2}$O$_{6}$ with $x=0.10$ and 0.15 and transition temperature…

Time resolved magneto-optical images show hysteresis associated with the transition at the so-called ``second magnetization peak'' at B_sp in single-crystalline Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_8+d. By rapid quenching of the high-field phase, it can be made…

A smart meta-superconductor Bi(Pb)SrCaCuO (B(P)SCCO) may increase the critical transition temperature (TC) of B(P)SCCO by electroluminescence (EL) energy injection of inhomogeneous phases. However, the increase amplitude {\Delta}TC…

Ferroelectricity in sputtered undoped-HfO$_2$ is attractive for composition control for low power and non-volatile memory and logic applications. Unlike doped HfO$_2$, evolution of ferroelectricity with annealing and film thickness effect…

A low-power stable tunnel diode oscillator with non-traditional single-layer flat pick-up coil is an excellent MHz-range instrument with which one may study weakly expressed peculiarities of the superconductive (SC) state in tiny plate-like…

We report the effect of annealing on the superconductivity of MgB2 thin films as functions of the postannealing temperature in the range from 700 C to 950 C and of the postannealing time in the range from 30 min to 120 min. On annealing at…
