Interlayer tunneling spectroscopy measurements were performed on mesa arrays of Bi-2212 single crystals, intercalated with HgBr$_2$. Tunneling conductances were obtained over a wide temperature range to examine the spectral features, especially the behavior of the quasiparticle peaks corresponding to superconducting energy gaps (SGs). Experimental spectra showed that gap-like features are still present even for the temperatures far above the transition temperature, T$_c$. This evidence is consistent with the idea that the SG evolves into a pseudogap above T$_c$ for HgBr$_2$-intercalated Bi-2212 single crystals.

We report measurements of AC susceptibility and hence the in-plane London penetration depth on the same samples of Bi:2212 and Bi(Y):2212 for many values of the planar hole concentration/CuO2 unit (p). These support the scenario in which the pseudoga p weakens the superconducting response only for p less than approximately 0.19.

We present results of Raman scattering experiments in differently doped Bi-2212 single crystals. Below Tc the spectra show pair-breaking features in the whole doping range. The low frequency power laws confirm the existence of a $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave or der parameter. In the normal state between Tc and T* = 200K we find evidence for a pseudogap in B2g symmetry. Upon doping its effect on the spectra decreases while its energy scale appears to be unchanged.
We report the pressure effect in Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+{delta} (Bi-2223) single crystal with a small amount of intergrowth of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+{delta} (Bi-2212). Their superconducting transition temperatures Tcs showed a domelike shape as a function of pressu re, which showed a good agreement with the general relation between the carrier concentration and Tc. Our experimental results indicate that high pressure can induce effective carrier doping into the multilayered high-Tc cuprate superconductor
The specific heat of Nd(Y)Ba2Cu3Ox single crystals without substitution of Nd for Ba has been measured for various oxygen contents. In comparison with YBa2Cu3Ox, the maximum attainable transition temperature of the crystals is about 4 K higher and sh ifted from x = 6.92 to x = 7.0, the highest possible oxygen content. In spite of the difference in the Tc(x) dependences, the jump in the specific heat DeltaC/Tc in both systems increases continuously being maximum at x = 7.0. Bond valence sum calculations based on neutron diffraction data point to a retarded generation of holes with increasing oxygen content in the Nd system and a different hole distribution between the chains and the planes in comparison to YBa2Cu3Ox accounting for the different behaviour of both systems.
Significant insights for critical current density (Jc) improvement in Bi-2212 super- conductor wires can be obtained by an accurate analysis of the structural and mi- crostructural properties evolving during the so-called partial-melt process, a heat treatment needed to improve grain connectivity and therefore gain high Jc. Here, we report an in-situ analysis by means of synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction performed, for the first time, during the heat treatment carried out with the very same temperature profile and reacting oxygen atmosphere in which the Bi-2212 wires are usually treated for practical applications. The obtained results show the thermal evolution of the Bi-2212 structure, focusing in particular on texturing and secondary phases formation. The role of the oxygen is discussed as well. Hence, the present investigation marks a significant advance for the comprehension of the phenomena involved in the wire fabrication process and provides useful insights for the process optimization as well.
