Abstract:
We use scanning tunneling microscopy to investigate Bi_{2}Sr_{2}Ca_{2}Cu_{3}O_{10+δ} trilayer cuprates from the optimally doped to overdoped regime. We find that the two distinct superconducting gaps from the inner and outer CuO_{2} planes both decrease rapidly with doping, in sharp contrast to the nearly constant T_{C}. Spectroscopic imaging reveals the absence of quasiparticle interference in the antinodal region of overdoped samples, showing an opposite trend to that in single- and double-layer compounds. We propose that the existence of two types of inequivalent CuO_{2} planes and the intricate interaction between them are responsible for these anomalies in trilayer cuprates.

When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
