Tunneling Measurements on YBa2Cu4O8 under Magnetic Fields
Tunneling measurements on YBa2Cu4O8 were performed systematically for the first time. Tunnel junctions were fabricated by depositing Au layers directly on the surface of sintered samples. Effects of magnetic fiel...

Copper Nuclear Relaxation Rate and Knight Shift in YBa2Cu4O8
The temperature dependences of the 63Cu nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/Ti for the Cu(1) chain sites and the planar Cu(2) sites in YBa2Cu4O8 have been measured by nuclear quadrupole resonance(NQR). The in-...

Magnetization Properties of YBCO Prepared by MPMG Process
Magnetization properties of YBaCuO samples prepared by melt-powder-meltgrowth (MPMG) process are different from those of the sintered samples, because the MPMG processed sample does not have weak-links and the...

Photoemission Study of Bi2Nd0.5Ca2.5Cu2Oy and Bi2(La,Pr)0.5Ca2.5Cu2Oy Superconductors
X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) of Cu 2p have been studied for oxygen- and air-sintered samples of Bi2(La,Pr)0.5Ca2.5Cu2Oy and Bi2Nd0.5Ca2.5Cu2Oy. We estimated the number of Cu 3d electrons, n ...

Specific Heat of YBa2Cu4O8 near Tc
Specific heat measurements are reported for a polycrystalline, bulk sample of YBa2Cu4O8 prepared at high oxygen pressure. The magnitude of the idealized specific heat jump ΔCp/T at Tc (=80 ± 0.5K) is 15.5±2 mJ/K2

Dynamical Magnetic Flux Behavior in High-Tc Oxide Superconductors
The dynamical magnetic flux behavior in MPMG-processed YBaCuO was observed using the motion of stripe magnetic domains on an iron garnet film placed on the specimen. Optical observation of the domain structure...

Raman Scattering from Spin-Pair Excitations in Pr2−xCexCuO4−yNd2−xCexCuO4−y and Sm2−xCexCuO4−y
Antiferromagnetic excitations in single crystals of Pr2−xCexCuO4−y, Nd2xCexCuO4−y and Sm2−xCexCuO4−y were investigated as a function of Ce concentration using Raman scattering at room temperature. The introductio...

Phonons in (Sm,Ce)2(Ba,Sm)2Cu3Ox
Polarized Raman spectra of (Sm,Ce)2(Ba,Sm)2Cu3Ox which has Cu-O5 pyramid structure as well as YBa2Cu3O7 have been measured at room temperature using single crystals. Peaks have been observed at 442 and 537 cm−1 i...
