Probing Inhomogeneous Cuprate Superconductivity by Terahertz Josephson Echo Spectroscopy

Albert Liu, Danica Pavicevic, Marios H. Michael +9

Inhomogeneities play a crucial role in determining the properties of quantum materials. Yet methods that can measure these inhomogeneities are few, and apply to only a fraction of…
