Abstract

ABSTRACTOptical data over a broad energy range (∼ 0.01 eV to ∼ 6 eV) for a series of La2−xSrxCuO4-δ compounds are obtained in parallel with the Meissner effect and the superconductivity transition temperature, Tc. Two noteworthy trends in the optical spectra are observed as the Sr concentration is increased in small steps from x = 0 to x = 0.3. First is the appearance of a low frequency band in the reflectivity, R, whose strength follows closely the Meissner effect and Tc measured on the same set of samples. The position of the onset of this band is pinned at ∼0.9 eV for all values of x. The origin of this band in R is identified as an absorption process due to an electronic transition with a large oscillator strength. Second is the appearance and disappearance of an intense vibrational mode whose strength also tracks “superconductivity”. This sharp structure in the far infrared is a characteristic vibrational mode associated with the dopant induced electronic state.

1. 16. We note that all of the single crystal and oriented film reflection results cannot be fitted satisfactorily to a Drude expression.

2. 5. In extending the measurements to FIR region we find that the absolute scale for R in Figure 1 that is set by the ellipsometry measurements is too high. Δ(Ω) are obtained by extrapolating the zero frequency value of R at low temperatures to unity.
