β¦ Synopsis
The Fermi surface and superconducting gap of MgB 2 have been studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Two Fermi surfaces composed of the r band and the p band are clearly observed without contaminated by the ''surface-derived'' band. The high-resolution photoemission spectra show that superconducting gaps with values of 5.5 and 2.2 meV open on the r band and the p band, respectively, both of which close at the bulk transition temperature Γ°T c Γ. This result provides an experimental evidence for the two-band superconductivity on MgB 2 and, moreover, validates the role of momentum-dependent electron-phonon coupling as the origin of multiple-gap superconductivity as well as the high transition temperature Γ°T c Γ of MgB 2 .

The relationship between the composition and the superconducting properties of Mg x B 2 films fabricated by molecular beam epixay (MBE) were investigated. The Mg x B 2 films-with a composition gradient of Mg and B-were formed on c-plane Al 2 O 3 (0 0 0 1) substrates by controlling the in-plane distr
We have performed a systematic angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on the high-T c superconducting family of Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca nΓ1 Cu n O 2nΓΎ4 (n ΒΌ 1-3). We find that large Fermi surface and d-wave superconducting gap are the generic features of Bi-family high-T c cuprates. Comparison of the nodal
