We have magnetically imaged interlayer Josephson vortices emerging from an ac face of single crystals of the single layer cuprate high-Tc superconductor (Hg,Cu)Ba2CuO4+d. These images provide a direct measurement of the c-axis penetration…

The reflectance of high-quality, unpolished single crystals of YBa_2Cu_3O_{6+x}, for the doping range x=0.50 -> 0.95, has been measured with radiation polarized along the c axis from approx 50 cm^{-1} to 5000 cm^{-1} between 10 K and 300 K.…

Zuev et al. reported measurements of the in-plane magnetic penetration depth of supposedly underdoped films of YBa2Cu3O6+x, with Tc from 6 to 50 K. They argue that their data is inconsistent with a linear relationship between Tc and the…

The zero temperature in plane penetration depth in an untwinned single crystal of optimally doped YBa_2Cu_3O_6.93 is highly anisotropic. This fact has been interpreted as evidence that a large amount of the condensate resides in the chains.…

Theoretical results for the ab-plane tunneling conductance in the d-wave model for high Tc superconductors are presented. The d-wave model predicts surface bound states below the maximum gap. A sub-dominant order parameter, stabilized by…

The interlayer tunneling mechanism of the cuprate high temperature superconductors involves a conversion of the confinement kinetic energy of the electrons perpendicular to the CuO-planes ($c$-axis) in the normal state to the pair binding…

YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ (YBCO) has favorable macroscopic superconducting properties of $T_\mathrm{c}$ up to 93 K and $H_{c2}$ up to 150 T. However, its nanoscale electronic structure remains mysterious because bulk-like electronic…

We present a variational study of the helicity moduli of an anisotropic quantum three-dimensional (3D) XY-model of YBCO in superconducting state. It is found that both the ab-plane and the c-axis helicity moduli, which are proportional to…

We formulate a model describing the doping ($x$) and temperature ($T$) dependence of the $ab$-plane and c-axis penetration depth of a cuprate superconductor. The model incorporates the suppression of the superfluid density with underdoping…

We show in a simple model of interlayer hopping of single electrons, that transport along the weakly coupled c-axis of quasi-two-dimensional metals does not always probe only the in-plane electron properties. In our model where there is a…

We show that the resistive anisotropy of an anisotropic medium is determined by the ratio of the phase coherence lengths. In layered crystals in which the interlayer transport is incoherent, the out-of-plane phase coherence length is fixed…

We report measurements of the ab-plane superfluid density Ns (magnetic penetration depth, \lambda) of severely underdoped films of YBa2Cu3O6+x, with Tc's from 6 to 50 K. Tc is not proportional to Ns(0); instead, we find Tc ~ Ns^{1/2.3 +/-…

We have measured the transport properties of a series of underdoped YBa2Cu3O7 nanowires fabricated with widths of 100-250 nm. We observe large telegraph-like fluctuations in the resistance between the pseudogap temperature T* and the…

Surface impedance measurements of LuNi2B2C superconducting thin films as a function of temperature have been performed down to 1.5 K and at 20 GHz using a dielectric resonator technique. The magnetic penetration depth closely reproduces the…

We consider the problem of c-axis transport in double-layered cuprates, in particular with reference to Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{8+\delta}$ compounds. We exploit the effect of the two barriers on the thermal and tunnel transport. The…

Very high applied pressure induces superconductivity with the transition temperature ($T_c$) exceeding 19 K in elemental yttrium, but relatively little is known about the nature of that superconductivity. From point-contact spectroscopy…

Using a conventional BCS -- Fermi liquid model we calculate the c-axis optical reflectivity of the layered high temperature cuprate superconductors by obtaining the finite temperature dynamical dielectric function in a microscopic…

The temperature dependence of the real part of the microwave complex conductivity at 17.9 GHz obtained from surface impedance measurements of two c-axis oriented MgB2 thin films reveals a pronounced maximum at a temperature around 0.6 times…

Based on the recent developed real-space picture of superconductivity, we study the stability of the superconducting vortex lattices in layered superconductors. It is shown that the effective c-axis lattice constant play a significant role…

An electrodynamic technique is developed for determining the components of surface impedance and complex conductivity tensors of HTSC single crystals on the basis of measured quantities of a quality factor and a resonator frequency shift. A…
