A 63Cu NMR study of Pb-doped Bi:2201 system, Bi1.6Pb0.4Sr2.05CuOy, is presented. Temperature dependencies of the NMR peak shift and the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate revealed the pseudogap that opens at T* = 20 - 60 K, way above the Tc ~ 9K measured for the orientation (H//c) and value (7 T) of the NMR experiment field. The noticeable discrepancy between Tc and T* and the behavior of Cu SLR at T > T* imply the underdoped state of the studied system. The magnetic field has a relatively weak effect on the superconductivity in the studied system, as evidenced from small (7-8 K) shift of the zero-field Tc = 16+/- 1K under the applied 7 T field. This fact suggests a high value of the upper critical field, unusual for a compound with such low Tc.

We report on study of the vortex liquid in Pb-doped Bi-2223 single crystal using the in-plane resistivity measurements as a function of temperature and magnetic field up to 6T applied perpendicular to CuO planes. Below Tc at the upper part of superconducting transition we found Arrhenius-like resistivity behavior. With further temperature decrease close to resistivity onset resistivity shows power law dependence on temperature signaling approaching vortex-glass transition. The critical exponents nu(z-1)=4.6 plus-minus 0.5 are found to be field independent within experimental errors. We also present magnetic phase diagram defining region of nonzero critical current for Pb-doped Bi-2223 single crystal.
Copper NMR has been used as a local probe of the oxygen ordering in Ortho--II YBa2Cu3O6.5 crystals grown in BaZrO3 crucibles. Line assignments have been made to each of the expected crystallographically inequivalent sites. The presence of distinct and narrow lines for these sites as well as the lack of a line known to be associated with oxygen defects indicates that these crystals are highly stoichiometric. Our estimate of the lower limit on the chain length is consistent with that derived from X-ray diffraction measurements. In addition, we have found no evidence for static magnetic moments, in contrast to some previous results.
The superconducting gap Delta has been measured in Bi2Sr2-xLaxCuO6+d single crystals in a wide range of temperatures 4.2 K < T < Tc by point-contact and tunnelling spectroscopy for current in c-direction. The value of Delta(4.2 K) was found to scale with the critical temperature Tc in the whole range of doping levels with the ratio 2D/kTc = 12.5 +/- 2. The closing of the gap Ds at T = Tc has been registered in the underdoped, optimally doped as well as in the overdoped sam-ples.
We report the first ^{75}As-NMR study on a single crystal of the hole-doped iron-pnictide superconductor Ba_{0.7}K_{0.3}Fe_2As_{2} (T_c = 31.5 K). We find that the Fe antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations are anisotropic and are weaker compared to underdoped copper-oxides or cobalt-oxide superconductors. The spin lattice relaxation rate 1/T_1 decreases below T_c with no coherence peak and shows a step-wise variation at low temperatures, which is indicative of multiple superconducting gaps, as in the electron-doped Pr(La)FeAsO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$. Furthermore, no evidence was obtained for a microscopic coexistence of a long-range magnetic and superconductivity.
To investigate the origin of the enhanced Tc ({approx} 110 K) of the trilayer cuprate superconductor Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+{delta} (Bi-2223), its underdoped single crystals are a critical requirement. Here, we demonstrate the first successful in-plane resistivity measurements of heavily underdoped Bi-2223 (zero-resistivity temperatures {approx} 20~35 K). Detailed crystal growth methods, the annealing process, as well as X-ray diffraction (XRD) and magnetic susceptibility measurement results are also reported.
