摘要
The superconducting energy gap, DELTA, of bulk UBe13 was measured as a function of temperature. Junctions were made by breaking a narrow region of a specimen in a vacuum and then repositioning the broken ends to form a mechanically adjustable break junction point contact. We concluded that the 2DELTA(0)/k(B)T(c) = 4.2 by fitting the data to the BCS form assuming a T(c) of 0.80 K.
