The properties of electron(n)-doped cuprate superconductors show significant deviations from those of their hold(p)-doped counterparts. Experiments prior to 2000 suggested an s-wave pairing symmetry as opposed to d-wave pairing symmetry in hole-doped cuprates. Recent experiments have suggested that n-doped cuprates have a d-wave pairing symmetry. However tunneling spectroscopy of these materials have not revealed a zero bias conductance peak (ZBCP), which is a classic signature of d-wave symmetry. We present the first tunneling spectroscopy data on n-doped Pr 2-x Ce x CuO 4 (PCCO) using point contact junctions which show a systematic evolution of the ZBCP. This method of junction fabrication is important as it allows the barrier strength between the normal and the superconducting electrodes to be varied. We show that this is essential to observing the ZBCP. The n-doped cuprates have a low Tc (~25 K ) and Hc2 (~10 T ). The low Hc2 enables us to obtain the normal state in PCCO at low temperatures. We have used this to probe the density of states in the normal state of PCCO. We observe an anomalous gap even in the normal state.1 This normal state gap (NSG) becomes smaller on the over-doped side. We discuss the behavior of this NSG in the context of the pseudogap which has been observed in hole-doped cuprates.

We study here a single band Hamiltonian model to describe the effect of next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) electron hopping on superconducting gap in Cuprates. The Hamiltonian consists of nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) electron hopping integrals between the copper sides. By taking d-wave pairing symmetry into account, BCS type superconducting interaction is studied. By applying Zubarev’s Green function technique, the total Hamiltonian is solved. From the correlation function, the temperature-dependent superconducting gap (SC) equation is derived and is computed self-consistently by using technique [Formula: see text] grid points of the electron momentum. By varying SC coupling, chemical potential, J-T coupling parameter and second-nearest-neighbor electron hopping integral, the evolution of the order parameter is investigated.
