Using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, a systematic study is performed of the doping dependence of the chemical potential $\mu$ in two systems of (Bi,Pb)$_2$Sr$_2$Ca$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{10+\delta}$. The doping is varied by changing the O content…
We report on the ab-plane reflectance of the high temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d (Bi-2212). Samples spanning the doping range from under doped with Tc = 67 K(UD), to optimally doped with Tc = 96 K (OPT), to over doped with Tc =…
Recent scanning tunneling microscopy on BSCCO 2212 has revealed a substantial spatial supermodulation of the energy gap in the superconducting state. We propose that this gap modulation is due to the superlattice modulations of the atoms in…
Atomically thin circuits have recently been explored for applications in next-generation electronics and optoelectronics and have been demonstrated with two-dimensional lateral heterojunctions. In order to form true 2D circuitry from a…
We present the ab-plane optical conductivity of four single crystals of Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{8+\delta}$ (Bi2212) with different carrier doping levels from the strongly underdoped to the strongly overdoped range with $T_c$=66, 88,…
New break-junction tunneling data are reported in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O(8+delta) over a wide range of hole concentration from underdoped (Tc = 74 K) to optimal doped (Tc = 95 K) to overdoped (Tc = 48 K). The conductances exhibit sharp dips at a…
In this paper we summarize our STM studies of the density of electronic states in nearly optimally doped Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+\delta}$ in zero field. We report on the inhomogeneity of the gap structure, density of states modulations…
The ability to manipulate individual atoms and molecules using a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) has been crucial for the development of a vast array of atomic scale devices and structures ranging from nanoscale motors and switches to…
The cuprate material BSCCO-2212 is believed to be doped by a combination of cation switching and excess oxygen. The interstitial oxygen dopants are of particular interest because scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) experiments have shown…
We study a one-dimensional chain of identical atoms with two electronic orbitals and two electrons per atom, subject to an external oscillating pressure that periodically modulates the lattice spacing. This leads to time-dependent intra-…
Thermoelectric transport has been widely used to study Abrikosov vortex dynamics in unconventional superconductors. However, only a few thermoelectric studies have been conducted near the dimensional crossover that occurs when the…
Tunneling spectra are reported for Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CaCu_{2}O_{8+\delta} (Bi-2212) over a wide doping range using superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) break junctions. The energy gap inferred from the tunneling data displays a…
We have observed back-bending structures at high bias current in the current-voltage curves of intrinsic Josephson junctions. These structures may be caused by nonequilibrium quasiparticle injection and/or Joule heating. The energy gap…
We have studied theoretically the possibility of ultra-fast manipulation of a single electron spin in 2D semiconductor quantum dots, by means of high-frequency time-dependent electric fields. The electron spin degree of freedom is excited…
A simple model to describe the energetic phase diagram of electron-doped cuprate superconductor is developed. Interband pairing operates between the UHB and the defect states created by doping and supplied by both extincting HB-s. Two…
Electronic Raman scattering from high- and low-energy excitations was studied as a function of temperature, extent of hole doping, and energy of the incident photons in Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8 \pm \delta} superconductors. For underdoped…
The scanning metallic tip of a scanning force microscope was coupled capacitively to electrons confined in a lithographically defined gate-tunable quantum dot at a temperature of 300 mK. Single electrons were made to hop on or off the dot…
We report on a thorough optical investigation over a broad spectral range and as a function of temperature of the charge dynamics in Ba(Co$_x$Fe$_{1-x}$)$_2$As$_2$ compounds for Co-doping ranging between 0 and 18%. For the parent compound…
Employing electrons for direct control of nanoscale reaction is highly desirable since it provides fabrication of nanostructures with different properties at atomic resolution and with flexibility of dimension and location. Here, applying…
In CaFe2As2, superconductivity can be achieved by applying a modest c-axis pressure of several kbar. Here we use scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) to explore the STM tip pressure effect on single crystals of CaFe2As2. When…
