Surface-To-Surface Transition Via Electromagnetic Coupling Of Coplanar Waveguides, Robert W. Jackson, David W. Matolak

Faculty Publications

A transition is investigated which couples coplanar waveguide on one substrate surface (a motherboard) to coplanar waveguide on another substrate surface (a semiconductor chip or subarray) placed above the first. No wire bonds are necessary. A full-wave analysis using coupled line theory is presented and verified experimentally. The use of this transition for coupling to millimeter-wave integrated circuits is discussed.

Normal-Metal Aharonov-Bohm Effect In The Presence Of A Transverse Electric Field, S. Washburn, H. Schmid, D. Kern, Richard A. Webb

Faculty Publications

The effects of transverse electric fields on the conductance fluctuations in an Sb loop have been studied. We show that the electric field can be used to tune the position (or phase) of Aharonov-Bohm oscillations as well as to alter the aperiodic conductance fluctuation patterns. We disucss two mechanisms which might cause the observed dependence of the fluctuation pattern on transverse electric field. The first is the electrostatic Aharonov-Bohm effect, and the second is the spatial shifting of the electron trajectories by the electric field.

Integer Squares With Constant Second Difference, Duncan A. Buell

Faculty Publications

The problem addressed is this: Do there exist nonconsecutive integers n₀, n₁, n₂, . . ., such that the second differences of the squares of the n_i are constant? Specifically, can that constant be equal to 2? A complete characterization of sequences of length four can be given. The question of whether or not sequences of length five exist is still open but the existence or nonexistence of such sequences can be described in a more algorithmic way than the simple statement of the problem.

Observation Of An Oxygen Isotope Effect In Yba2Cu3O7, Kevin J. Leary, Hans Conrad Zur Loye, Steven W. Keller, Tanya A. Faltens, William K. Ham, James N. Michaels, Angelica M. Stacy

Faculty Publications

A small decrease in T_c of 0.3 K to 0.5 K is observed when as much as 90% of the ¹⁶O in YBa₂Cu₃O₇ is substituted with¹⁸O. This result is consistent with our observation that there is an oxygen isotope effect in La_1.85Sr_0.15CuO₄, but in contrast with previous reports that there is no isotope effect for YBa₂Cu₃O₇. This new result suggests that phonons play an important role in the electron-pairing mechanism in YBa₂Cu₃O₇.

Observation Of An Isotope Shift In The Superconducting Transition Temperature Of La1.85Sr0.15Cuo4, Tanya A. Faltens, William K. Ham, Steven W. Keller, Kevin J. Leary, James N. Michaels, Angelica M. Stacy, Hans Conrad Zur Loye, Donald E. Morris, T W. Barbee Iii, Marvin L. Cohen, Cohen S. Hoen, A Zettl

Faculty Publications

An oxygen isotope shift is observed in superconducting La_1.85Sr_0.15CuO₄ when ¹⁸O is substituted partially for ¹⁶O; the superconducting transition temperature T_c is lowered by 0.3 to 1.0 K in different samples. We examine these results using conventioanl phonon-mediated BCS theory and conclude that, for La_1.85Sr_0.15CuO₄, phonons play an important role in the pairing mechanism.

Search For Isotope Effect In Superconducting Y-Ba-Cu-O, L C. Bourne, M F. Crommie, A Zettl, Hans Conrad Zur Loye, S W. Keller, K L. Leary, Angelica M. Stacy, K J. Chang, Marvin L. Cohen, Donald E. Morris

Faculty Publications

An isotope effect has been searched for in the high-T_c, superconductor YBa₂Cu₃0_{7 —b} through substitution of ¹⁸0 for ¹⁶O. No shift in the superconducting transition temperature T, is observed by electrical resistivity or magnetic susceptibility measurements. We discuss the implications of this result for mechanisms of superconductivity in the high-T, oxides.

Length-Independent Voltage Fluctuations In Small Devices, A. Benoit, C. P. Umbach, R. B. Laibowitz, Richard A. Webb

Faculty Publications

Conductance fluctuations in one-dimensional lines of length L shorter than the phase-coherence length L_φ are not universal but diverge as L^-2. Using the Onsager relations and voltage additivity, we show that the voltage fluctuations are independent of the distance between voltage probes. The antisymmetric (Hall-type) contribution to the voltage fluctuations is constant for all values of L. Measurements of the voltage fluctuations and correlation function between different regions in Au and Sb lines confirm these results.
