Research Abstract |
This project devotes for a pioneering work to develop a research field of vortex photonic crystal, in which terahertz (10^12 Hz) electromagnetic wave can be manipulated by vortex lattices in type II superconductors. In order to do that, we grew superconducting thin film and measure terahertz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS). THz-TDS results in supercondutors with Tc below 10 K have revealed temperature dependencies of superconducting gap and complex conductivity. Furthermore, we have been successful in growing high-quality single-crystalline thin-films of a superconductor with small quantity of rare-earth elements for the first time. These achievements brought fundamental knowledge on low energy excitation in superconductors and technical background for manipulating terahertz electromagnetic waves
