Non-Ohmic Normal State Behavior and the Onset of Global Superconductivity in Partially Annealed Quench–Condensed Films of Tin
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
Films of tin condensed onto 4K pyrex substrates can be driven from “insulating” (i.e. dR/dT < 0) to superconducting behavior by low temperature annealing. Global superconductivity occurs when the normul state sheet resistance, R□, shrinks to a value very near R□ ≡ h/4ea, as in experiments where R□ is changed by increasing the film thickness. When R□ > R□, conduction is decidedly non-ohmic, with R□(T,V) = R□(T) + R1 (T)exp(−m(T)|V|).
