; ; ; ;
Tunneling microscopy was investigated as a new tool for studying surfaces over a wide range of temperatures. It proved feasible to use tunneling to measure the superconducting energy gap in a high-temperature superconductor. It is the first time one can monitor the variations in this gap as a function of the spatial position on the surface.
