摘要
Tunneling measurements are reported for break junctions on Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8-delta Single crystals with various oxygen concentrations. Superconducting energy gaps a are observed in the underdoped samples which are considerably larger (similar to 30%) than found in optimal doped crystals. The trend of decreasing Delta and 2 Delta/kT(c), with increasing hole doping is continued into the overdoped region. Thus the superconducting gap and strong-coupling ratio change monotonically and dramatically over a narrow doping region where T-c, exhibits a maximum.
