Recent Results from Polycrystalline CVD Diamond Detectors
RD42 Collaboration, L. Bäni, A. Alexopoulos +109
Diamond is a material in use at many nuclear and high energy facilities due to its inherent radiation tolerance and ease of use. We have characterized detectors based on chemical v…
Insight into Non Linearly Shaped Superconducting Whiskers via Synchrotron Nanoprobe
Stefano Cagliero, Elisa Borfecchia, Lorenzo Mino +8
We managed to synthesize non-linear YBa2Cu3Ox whiskers, i.e. half loops or kinked shapes, which are promising candidates for solid-state devices based on the intrinsic Josephson ef…
Photoconductivity effects in mixed-phase BSCCO whiskers
Marco Truccato, Dario Imbraguglio, Angelo Agostino +4
We report on combined photoconductivity and annealing experiments in whisker-like crystals of the Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BSCCO) high-Tc superconductor. Both single-phase Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ(Bi…
Evidence of ion diffusion at room temperature in microcrystals of the Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta superconductor
M. Truccato, C. Lamberti, C. Prestipino +1
We have studied Bi-2212 microcrystals aged at ambient conditions for 40 days. Combined x-ray absorption near edge structure and x-ray fluorescence measurements with micrometer spac…
Evidence of a dominant Maki-Thompson process in the fluctuation conductivity of the Bi-2212 superconducting whiskers
M. Truccato, G. Rinaudo, A. Causio +3
We report the measurement of the a-axis fluctuation conductivity in zero field for Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x microcrystals. A good geometrical characterization and an original method for dat…
