Muon spin rotation measurement of the fundamental length scales in the vortex state of YBa2Cu3O6.60 (1997)

Sonier, J. E., Brewer, J. H., Kiefl, R. F., Bonn, D. A., Dunsiger, S. R., Hardy, W. N., ...

The internal field distribution in the vortex state of YBa2Cu3O6.60 is shown to be a sensitive measure of both the magnetic penetration depth and the vortex-core radius. The temperature dependence of...

Optical properties along the c axis of YBa_2Cu_3O_{6+x}, for x=0.50 -> 0.95: evolution of the pseudogap (1995)

Homes, C. C., Timusk, T., Bonn, D. A., Liang, R., Hardy, W. N.

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...

Optical phonons along the c axis of YBa_2Cu_3O_{6+x}, for x=0.5 -> 0.95 (1995)

Homes, C. C., Timusk, T., Bonn, D. A., Liang, R., Hardy, W. N.

The c-axis polarized phonon spectra of single crystals of YBCO_{6+x} have been measured for the doping range x=0.5 -> 0.95, between 10 K and 300 K. The low background electronic conductivity,...

Microwave determination of the quasiparticle scattering time in YBa2Cu3O6.95 (1993)

Bonn, D. A., Liang, R., Riseman, T. M., Baar, D. J., Morgan, D. C, Zhang, K., ...

We report microwave surface resistance (Rs) measurements on two very-high-quality YBa2Cu3O6.95 crystals which exhibit extremely low residual loss at 1.2 K (2-6 μΩ at 2 GHz), a broad, reproducible...
