A. Andreone et al., TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENCE OF THE PENETRATION DEPTH IN ND1.85CE0.15CUO4-DELTA SUPERCONDUCTING THIN-FILMS, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 49(9), 1994, pp. 6392-6394
Measurements of the in-plane magnetic-field penetration depth for the
n-doped high-T(c) superconductor Nd1.85Ce0.15CuO4-delta are reported.
The measurements were performed at 4 GHz by a microstrip resonator tec
hnique on thin films obtained by laser ablation. The temperature depen
dence of the penetration depth is carefully analyzed and the energy ga
p-ratio is estimated. The results confirm that Nd1.85Ce0.15CuO4-delta
behaves as a BCS-like superconductor.
