Theory of point contact spectroscopy in correlated materials

Journal Article Lee, Wei-Cheng ; Park, Wan Kyu ; Arham, Hamood Z. ; ... - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Here, we developed a microscopic theory for the point-contact conductance between a metallic electrode and a strongly correlated material using the nonequilibrium Schwinger-Kadanoff-Baym-Keldysh formalism. We explicitly show that, in the classical limit, contact size shorter than the scattering length of the system, the microscopic model can be reduced to an effective model with transfer matrix elements that conserve in-plane momentum. We found that the conductance dI/dV is proportional to the effective density of states, that is, the integrated single-particle spectral function A(ω = eV) over the whole Brillouin zone. From this conclusion, we are able to establish the conditions undermore »« less

Superconducting order parameter in nonmagnetic borocarbides RNi₂B₂C (R=Y, Lu) probed by point-contact Andreev reflection spectroscopy

Journal Article Lu, X. ; Park, W. K. ; Yeo, S. ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

We report on the measurements of the superconducting order parameter in the nonmagnetic borocarbides LuNi₂B₂C and YNi₂B₂C. Andreev conductance spectra are obtained from nanoscale metallic junctions on single crystal surfaces prepared along three major crystallographic orientations: [001], [110], and [100]. The gap values extracted by the single-gap Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk model follow the theoretical predictions as a function of temperature and magnetic field and exhibit a small anisotropy with no indication of proposed gap nodes along the [100] and [010] directions. These observations are robust and reproducible among all the measurements on two different sets of LuNi₂B₂C crystals and one set ofmore »« less
