ABSTRACTWe have examined the photoresponse of two-dimensional granular superconducting films of high Tc superconductors (Y-Ba-Cu-O). We see evidence for the existence of a twodimensional Kosterlitz-Thouless transition. The photoresponse and resistance have been measured as a functions of temperature, excitation power, bias current, and photon energy. The response to photons having energies above and below the superconducting energy gap(s) has been measured. Photoresponse features have been observed that are not explainable in terms of a conventional phonon bolometric mechanism. Comparison will be made with similar observations made on low temperature superconducting films (NbN-BN).

Poly(ʟ-lactide) (PLLA) films, even of high thickness, exhibiting co-crystalline and crystalline α phases with their chain axes preferentially perpendicular to the film plane (c⊥ orientation) have been obtained. This c⊥ orientation, unprecedented for PLLA films, can be achieved by the crystallization of amorphous films as induced by low-temperature sorption of molecules being suitable as guests of PLLA co-crystalline forms, such as N,N-dimethylformamide, cyclopentanone or 1,3-dioxolane. This kind of orientation is shown and quantified by two-dimensional wide-angle X-ray diffraction (2D-WAXD) patterns, as taken with the X-ray beam parallel to the film plane (EDGE patterns), which present all the hk0 arcs centered on the meridian. PLLA α-form films, as obtained by low-temperature guest-induced crystallization, also exhibit high transparency, being not far from those of the starting amorphous films.

We have analytically obtained the occupation probabilities on subbands of the hierarchical energy spectrum and the step heights of the integrated density of states for two-dimensional Fibonacci quasilattices. Based on the above results, the gap-labeling properties of the energy spectrum are found, which claim that the step height is equal to {mτ}, where the braces denote the fractional part, and m is an integer that can be used to label the corresponding energy gap. Numerical results confirm these results very well.

This issue of the MRS BULLETIN is devoted to high Tc superconductivity. It is the sequel to a previous series of articles on the same subject which appeared in the MRS BULLETIN in January 1989. While the articles in the January 1989 issue emphasized the families of high Tc superconducting oxides known at that rime, as well as novel processing techniques and thin films, the papers in this issue focus on the physical properties of high Tc oxide superconductors.The quality of polycrystalline and single-crystal bulk and thin-film materials has improved to the point where researchers can now make reliable measurements of many physical properties representative of the intrinsic behavior of these materials. As a result, a broad spectrum of important issues such as the nature of the electronic structure, the type of superconducting electron pairing, the magnitude and temperature dependence of the superconducting energy gap, the behavior of fluxoids in the vortex state, etc., can be addressed meaningfully. Presently emerging is a consistent picture of the physical properties of the high Tc oxides, which will form the foundation to eventually developing an appropriate theory for the normal and superconducting states of these remarkable materials.
