Abstract:
() thin films were photodoped with white light at various temperatures from 70 K to 290 K. Before and after the excitation, the magnetoconductivity was measured in a magnetic field B = 0.5 T, and the experimental results were fitted to the Aslamazov-Larkin theory of superconducting order-parameter fluctuations to determine the superconducting coherence lengths, and . We observed that the photodoping process enhanced and and that the amount increased with the photodoping temperature increase. On the other hand, the superconducting anisotropy / decreased with increasing temperature. The photodoping effect enhances superconducting properties of partially oxygen-deficient samples and is considerably increased by high doping temperatures.
