摘要
Interlayer tunneling spectra, the Josephson critical current density J(c), and the normal tunneling resistance have been measured simultaneously for intrinsic Josephson junctions in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta over a wide range of doping using a small mesa structure and a short-pulse technique. It is found that J(c) decreases by nearly two orders of magnitude in the underdoped region. Experimental J(c) is found to show a significant deviation from the theoretical estimates. In order to interpret the result, we propose a model in which the superconducting order parameter is inhomogeneous in k space rather than in real space. Based on this model, quasiparticle current-voltage characteristics are calculated, giving a qualitative agreement with the experiment.
