Abstract
Improved tunneling spectroscopy with [BSCCO(2212)/SiO x ]/Au tip point contact junction enables us to observe significant peaks in the tunneling conductance derivative spectrum\(\frac{{d^2 I}}{{d^2 V}} - V\). Their peak energy eV i could be systematically assigued byeV i −Δ = ηε0 +ħω i (ph) withn=0,1,2. Here,ħω i means each phonon mode energy and ε0 = 72meV was found just corresponding to the breathing mode of the Cu−O bond stretching in the CuO2 plane, which indicates that these characteristic optical phonons play an essential role in the high T c superconductivity. The infrared reflectance spectrum by Capizzi et al. on similar substance is found in peak correspondence.
