We performed point-contact spectroscopy on the binary superconductor MgB$_2$. The differential conductance shows gap-related structures which vary in width and position from contact to contact. The distribution of energy gaps shows a…
Experimental support is found for the multiband model of the superconductivity in the recently discovered system MgB2 with the transition temperature Tc = 39 K. By means of Andreev reflection evidence is obtained for two distinct…
Tunneling data on magnesium diboride, MgB_2, are reviewed with a particular focus on superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) junctions formed by a break-junction method. The collective tunneling literature reveals two distinct energy…
Point-contact measurements on the carbon-substituted Mg(B$_{1-x}$C$_x$)$_2$ filament/powder samples directly reveal a retention of the two superconducting energy gaps in the whole doping range from $x = 0$ to $x \approx 0.1$. The large gap…
The study of the anisotropic superconductor MgB2 using a combination of scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy reveals two distinct energy gaps at Delta1=2.3 meV and Delta2=7.1 meV. Different spectral weights of the partial…
This paper reports specific-heat measurements on superconducting MgB2 in magnetic fields to 9 T. In zero magnetic field the data can be fitted to a two-gap model, which is a generalization of a semi-empirical model for strong-coupled,…
We have measured the Raman spectra of polycrystalline MgB$_{2}$ from 25 {\cm} to 1200 {\cm}. When the temperature was decreased below the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$, we observed a superconductivity-induced redistribution…
We report on tunneling and Andreev-reflection conductance spectra of 39 K superconducting magnesium diboride, obtained with Pb and Au counter-electrodes. Two distinct steps at close to 2.7 and 7.1 meV appear in a low-resistance…
We use tunable laser based Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy to study the electronic structure of the multi-band superconductor, MgB2. These results form the base line for detailed studies of superconductivity in multi-band systems.…
Several theoretical analyses of the two superconducting energy gaps of magnesium diboride, $\Delta_\pi$ and $\Delta_\sigma$, predict substructures within each energy gap, rather than two pure numbers. Recent experiments have revealed…
We have synthesized MgB2/Pb planar junctions to study the temperature and field dependence of the superconducting energy gap of MgB2. The major peak occurs at Delta of about 2 meV, and this corresponds to a 2Delta/kBTc value of 1.18. While…
We study the new binary intermetallic superconductor MgB2 using high-resolution photo-emission spectroscopy. The superconducting-state spectrum measured at 5.4 K shows a coherent peak with a shoulder structure, in sharp contrast to that…
The progress in investigation of two-band superconductor MgB$_2$ by the point-contact spectroscopy (PCS) is given. Results of study of superconducting gap temperature and magnetic field dependence for two-dimensional $\sigma$ and…
We have performed high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy on MgB2 and observed opening of a superconducting gap with a narrow coherent peak. We found that the superconducting gap is s-like with the gap value of 4.5 meV at 15 K. The…
We have studied the structure of the superconducting gap in MgB2 thin films by means of point-contact spectroscopy using a gold tip. The films were produced by depositing pure boron on a sapphire substrate, using e-beam evaporation,…
The Andreev reflection measurements of the superconducting energy gap in the carbon-substituted MgB$_2$ are presented. Despite the strong suppression of the transition temperature by 17 K in comparison with the pure MgB$_2$, the same…
Point-contact tunnel junctions using a Au tip on sintered MgB2 pellets reveal a sharp superconducting energy gap that is confirmed by subsequent metallic Sharvin contacts made on the same sample. The peak in the tunneling conductance and…
We report scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) measurements of the gap properties of both ceramic MgB2 and c-axis oriented epitaxial MgB2 thin films. Both show a temperature dependent zero bias conductance peak and evidence for two…
We report the results of the first directional point-contact measurements in Mg(B_{1-x}C_{x})_2 single crystals with 0.047 <= x <= 0.132. The two-gap superconductivity typical of MgB_2 persists up to x=0.105. In this region, the values of…
Magnesium diboride has many intriguing characteristics, including its relatively high critical temperature and two-band nature. Most prior studies of MgB2 thin film Josephson junctions have been conducted above 2 Kelvin. We report results…
