AbstractWe used the topological insulator (TI) Bi2Te3 and a high-temperature superconductor (HTSC) hybrid device for investigations of proximity-induced superconductivity (PS) in the TI. Application of the superconductor YBa2Cu3O7-δ (YBCO) enabled us to access higher temperature and energy scales for this phenomenon. The HTSC in the hybrid device exhibits emergence of a pseudogap state for T > Tc that converts into a superconducting state with a reduced gap for T < Tc. The conversion process has been reflected in Raman spectra collected from the TI. Complementary charge transport experiments revealed emergence of the proximity-induced superconducting gap in the TI and the reduced superconducting gap in the HTSC, but no signature of the pseudogap. This allowed us to conclude that Raman spectroscopy reveals formation of the pseudogap state but cannot distinguish the proximity-induced superconducting state in the TI from the superconducting state in the HTSC characterised by the reduced gap. Results of our experiments have shown that Raman spectroscopy is a complementary technique to classic charge transport experiments and is a powerful tool for investigation of the proximity-induced superconductivity in the Bi2Te3.

Martensite Structure

It is well known that a number of compound superconductors with the A15 structure undergo a martensite transformation when cooled to the superconducting state. Nb3Sn is one of those compounds that transforms, at least partially, from a cubic to tetragonal structure near 43 K. To our knowledge this transformation in Nb3Sn has not been studied by TEM. In fact, the only low temperature TEM study of an A15 material, V3Si, was performed by Goringe and Valdre over 20 years ago. They found the martensite structure in some foil areas at temperatures between 11 and 29 K, accompanied by faults that consisted of coherent twin boundaries on {110} planes. In pursuing our studies of irradiation defects in superconductors, we are the first to observe by TEM a similar martensite structure in Nb3Sn.Samples of Nb3Sn suitable for TEM studies have been produced by both a liquid solute diffusion reaction and by sputter deposition of thin films.
