项目摘要

The aim of the present project is to prepare single crystals of insulating copper oxides including parent insulators of high-temperature superconductors, to measure anisotropic dielectric constants as functions of temperature and frequency, and to clarify unique features to dielectric response in the parent insulators.Through this project, we have successful synthesized Bi_2Sr_<2-x>La_xCaCu_2O_8 as the least disordered parent insulator of the Bi-2212-type super conductor. We have also synthesized the Pb-substituted insulators (Bi,Pb)_2Sr_2ErCu_2O_8 with no superstructure in the BiO layer, which has been used for photoemission and scanning-tunneling-microscope(STM) experiments. These samples clealy exhibit the dielectric relaxation described by extended Debye-type relaxation, which suggest that the carrier density is spatially inhomogeneous in the CuO_2 plane. In fact, the STM experiment has shown that the pseudo-gap is inhomogenous in space.Among the insulating copper oxides, CaCu_3T_<14>O_<12> shows unusual substitution effects, where only 2% Mn can suppress the gigantic dielectric constant. This could be a clue to the elucidation of the dielectric response. We have further investigated the dielectric response of the conducting organic salts theta-(BEDT-TTF)_2MM'(SCN)_4(M=Rb and Cs, M'=Co and Zn), where charge order domains are inhomogeneously distributed. Most unexpectedly we have found gigantic nonlinear conduction for M=Cs, which would break a new ground to the condensed-matter physics.

本项目的目的是准备绝缘铜氧化物的单晶，包括高温超导体的母体绝缘体，测量各向异性介电常数作为温度和频率的功能，并阐明对父母绝缘体中介电响应的独特特征。 BI-2212型超级导体的绝缘体。我们还合成了PB取代的绝缘子（BI，PB）_2SR_2ERCU_2O_8，在Bio层中没有上层结构，该层已用于光发射和扫描刺激 - 刺激 - 微镜（STM）实验。这些样品表现出用扩展的Debye型松弛描述的介电弛豫，这表明载体密度在CUO_2平面上是空间不均匀的。实际上，STM实验表明，伪空隙在太空中是不源的。在绝缘铜氧化物中，CACU_3T_ <14> O_ <12>显示出异常的替代效应，其中只有2％MN可以抑制巨大的介电常数。这可能是阐明介电响应的线索。我们进一步研究了传导有机盐的介电响应theta-（bedt-ttf）_2mm'（scn）_4（m = rb和cs，m'= co和Zn），其中电荷顺序域被不均匀地分布。最出乎意料的是，我们发现了M = CS的巨大非线性传导，这将为凝结物理学打破新的基础。
