  • We present the effects of temperature (between 10 K and 298 K) and of hole concentration on the frequency and intensity of characteristic phonons in polycrystalline $La_2CuO_4-related$ compounds using FT-IR spectros-copy. The influences of the concentration of carrier doped on the phonon modes are prominent in the IR spectra of $La_2CuO_4-related$ compounds. For $La_2-xSrxCuO_4({\chi}=$ 0.00, 0.03, 0.07, 0.10, and 0.15) and electrochemically (or chemically) oxidized $La_2CuO_4$, the intensities of the transverse oxygen mode around 680cm $-^1$ which cor-responds mainly to Cu-O(1) stretching vibration in the basal plane of CuO6 octahedron, are decreased and dis-appeared depending on the Sr-substitution rate and the amount of excess oxygen, while the longitudinal oxygen mode around 510 cm $-^1$ corresponding to the Cu-O(2) stretching in the basal plane of CuO6 octahedron are near-ly invariable. In particular, after two cycles of cooling-heating between 10 K and 298 K for these sample, the phonons around 680 cm $-^1$ are blue shif 13-15 cm $-^1$, while the phonons around 510 cm $-^1$ are nearly constant. The introduction of the charge carrier by doping would give rise to the small contraction of CuO6 oc-tahedron as Cu $^3+$ requires a smaller site than Cu $^2+$, which results in the shortening of the Cu-O(1) bond length and Cu-O(2) bond length with the increased La-O(2) bond length. These results in the frequency shift of the characteristic phonons. The IR spectra of $La_2Li0.5Cu0.5O_4$ which exhibits an insulator behavior despite the $Cu^3+$ of nearly 100%, corroborate our IR interpretations. The mode around 710 cm $-^1$ corresponding to Cu-O(1) stretching vibration is still strongly remained even at low temperature (10 K). Thus, we conclude that the con-duction electrons formed within $CuO_2$ planes of $La_2CuO_4-related$ superconductors screen more effectively the transverse oxygen breathing mode around 680 $cm-^1$ depending on the concentration of the doped charge carrier in $La_2CuO_4-related$ compounds, which might use as a superconductivity probe.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effect of milling of boron (B), which is one of raw materials of $MgB_2$, on the critical current density ($J_c$) of $MgB_2$. B powder used in this study is semi-amorphous B (Pavezyum, Turkey, 97% purity, 1 micron). The size of B powder was reduced by planetary milling using $ZrO_2$ balls (a diameter of 2 mm). The B powder and balls with a ratio of 1:20 were charged in a ceramic jar and then the jar was filled with toluene. The milling time was varied from 0 to 8 h. The milled B powders were mixed with Mg powder in the composition of (Mg+2B), and the powder mixtures were uniaxially pressed at 3 tons. The powder compacts were heat-treated at $700^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in flowing argon gas. Powder X-ray diffraction and FWHM (Full width at half maximum) were used to analyze the phase formation and crystallinity of $MgB_2$. The superconducting transition temperature ($T_c$) and $J_c$ of $MgB_2$ were measured using a magnetic property measurement system (MPMS). It was found that $B_2O_3$ was formed by B milling and the subsequent drying process, and the volume fraction of $B_2O_3$ increased as milling time increased. The $T_c$ of $MgB_2$ decreased with increasing milling time, which was explained in terms of the decreased volume fraction of $MgB_2$, the line broadening of $MgB_2$ peaks and the formation of $B_2O_3$. The $J_c$ at 5 K increased with increasing milling time. The $J_c$ increase is more remarkable at the magnetic field higher than 3 T. The $J_c$ at 5 K and 4 T was the highest as $4.37{\times}10^4A/cm^2$ when milling time was 2 h. The $J_c$ at 20 K also increased with increasing milling time. However, The $J_c$ of the samples with the prolonged milling for 6 and 8 h were lower than that of the non-milled sample.

  • 본 연구에서는 현재까지 연구된 HTSC와 다른 새로운 HTSC 물질군으로 제시된 LSMIO에 대한 합성 및 박막 성장과 물성 측정을 진행하였다. LSMIO는 기존의 HTSC 물질들과 비교하여 초전도처럼 보이는 현상의 기작이 상이한 것으로 예상되어 초전도 현상에 대한 이해의 폭을 넓히는데 도움이 될 것으로 기대되는 물질이다. 박막 성장을 위해 고상 합성법을 적용하여 La0.7Sr0.3Mn1-xIrxO3 세라믹 타겟을 합성하였으며, XRD 패턴 분석 결과 La0.7Sr0.3Mn0.88Ir0.12O3 샘플을 1200℃에서 2회 소결하는 것이 최적의 합성 조건임을 찾아내었다. 해당 조성의 LSMIO 세라믹 타겟을 사용하여 레이저 강도를 0.4 J/cm2에서 1.2 J/cm2까지 조절하며 PLD를 사용해 박막을 증착 하였다. 모든 LSMIO 박막은 동일한 단결정 LSAT 기판 위에 같은 두께로 성장하여 기판과 시료 두께에 의한 효과는 배제하였다. RHEED 패턴과 박막 XRD 측정 결과 성장된 박막들은 epitaxial하게 100 UC로 성장되었음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 각 박막들은 저항 측정 결과 모체 화합물인 LSMO와 비슷한 저항 특성을 보이며, 레이저 강도가 강할수록 Curie 온도가 낮아지는 결과가 나타났다. LSMIO와 LSMO가 유사한 전기적 특성을 가지는 것을 볼 때, Curie 온도의 하락은 박막의 Sr 치환 비율의 감소에 의한 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구에서는 HTSC의 후보군인 LSMO에 Ir을 치환하여 결정 및 전자 구조의 다양한 변화 시도하고 그 특성을 관찰하였다. LSMIO 페로브스카이트 시스템에서는 자기 양자불안정 (magnetic quantum instability) 상태 부근에서 강자성요동 (ferromagnetic fluctuation)에 의해 초전도가 발현될 수 있다고 보고되었지만, [5, 14] 본 연구에서 성장된 LSMIO 박막은 일반적인 강자성 특성을 보이며 초전도 현상은 관찰되지 않았다. 차후, 아직은 시작 단계인 LSMIO 소재에 관한 연구 저변을 확대하고 다양한 조성비의 박막을 성장하여 물리적 특성과 근원에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 비록 초전도는 발현되지 않았지만 manganite 페로브스카이트 시스템에서 전이금속 원소의 치환 및 세라믹 타겟 합성, 그리고 박막 성장과 특성 분석에 걸친 전과정에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 이를 바탕으로 차후 다양한 HTSC 소재의 합성 및 박막화와 그 특성을 평가하는 연구에 대한 통찰을 제공하기를 기대한다.
