Charge transfer polarisation wave and carrier pairing in the high T(sub c) copper oxides

The High T(sub c) oxides are highly polarizable materials and are charge transfer insulators. The charge transfer polarization wave formalism is developed in these oxides. The dispersion relationships due to long range dipole-dipole interaction of a charge transfer dipole lattice are obtained in 3-D and 2-D. These are high frequency bosons and their coupling with carriers is weak and antiadiabatic in nature. As a result, the mass renormalization of the carriers is negligible in complete contrast to conventional electron-phonon interaction, that give polarons and bipolarons. Both bound and superconducting pairing is discussed for a model Hamiltonian valid in the antiadiabatic regime, both in 3-D and 2-D. The stability of the charge transfer dipole lattice has interesting consequences that are discussed.

Large Bandwidth and Low Noise in a Diffusion-Cooled Hot-Electron Bolometer Mixer

Heterodyne measurements have been made at 533 GHz using a novel superconducting hot-electron bolometer in a waveguide mixer. The bolometer is a 0.3 micrometer long niobium microbridge with a superconducting transition temperature of 5 K. The short length ensures that electron diffusion dominates over electron-phonon interactions as the electron cooling mechanism, which should allow heterodyne detection with intermediate frequencies (if) of several GHz. A Y-factor response of 1.15 dB has been obtained at an if of 1.4 GHz with 77 and 295 K loads, indicating a receiver noise temperature of 650 K DSB. The -3 dB rolloff in the if response occurs at 1.7 GHz.

Large Bandwidth and Low Noise in a Diffusion-Cooled Hot-Electron Bolometer Mixer

X Heterodyne measurements have been made at 533 GHz using a novel superconducting hot-electron bolometer in a waveguide mixer. The bolometer is a 0.3 ??ong niobium microbridge with T c =(approx. equal to)5K. The short length ensures that electron diffusion dominates over electron-phonon interactions as the electron cooling mechanism, which should allow heterodyne detection with intermediate frequencies (if{italics})) of several GHz. A Y-factor response of 1.15dB has been obtained at an if(italics) of 1.4 GHz with 77k and 295k loads, indicating a receiver noise temperature of 650 k DSB. The -3 dB rolloff in the if(italics) response occurs at 1.7 GHz.
