Research Abstract

Sandwich type SIN junctions of YBa<@D22@>D2Cu<@D23@>D2Ox(YBCO)/SrTiO<@D23@>D2(STO)/Au and YBCO/PrGaO<@D23@>D2(PGO)/Au were fabricated using a-axis oriented YBCO films under the some conditions using a rf magnetron sputtering with dc voltage biased substrate holder. The differential conductance-voltage(dI/dV-V) curves of junctions with defferent barrier thickness were investigated. The junction showed the tunnel-like behavior, though some junctions showed the curves with pinhole-short-circuits. The junctions had the change in the gradient of differential conductance in the curves at about (]SY.+-。[) 20mV.This change was obviously observed with decreasing the barrier thickness. On the other hand, it was also observed the small zero bias anomalies for the junctions with thin barrier. The curves of junctions with PGO barrier were simillar to those with the STO barrier. It is considered that the tunneling occurs via thin region in the ununiform barrier.
And then, the effects of dI/dV-V curves on the heat treatment in oxygen gas were also investigated. In order to obtain the change in the gradient of dI/dV in the dI/dV-V curve, the optimum annealing time was 2-4h. The slope of the background conductance of junctions becomes steep with increasing the annealing time.
