Film-thickness-driven superconductor to insulator transition in cuprate superconductors
Abstract The superconductor-insulator transition induced by film thickness control is investigated for the optimally doped cuprate superconductor La1.85Sr0.15CuO4. Epitaxial thin films are grown on an almost exactly matched substrate LaAlO3 (001). Despite the wide thickness range of 6 nm to 300 nm,...
