  2. Contents • Introduction • Physical Properties of Diamond • Superconductivity in diamond • Experiments • Summary

  3. Physical Properties of Diamond Covalent bonding crystal (sp3 hybrid orbital) ⇒ strong bonding energy hardest material chemically stable material high thermal conductivity

  4. Band structure of Diamond Band gap 5.47eV  ~ 6.3×104K good insulator Semiconducting behavior by doping carrier

  5. Carrier doping to diamond E Conduction band Eg Acceptor level Valence Band Carrier doping B3+-doping N5+-doping p-type(hole) n-type(electron) making a shallow acceptor level close to top of the valence band hole dope(acceptor) low carrier doping level →semiconducting conductivity high carrier doping level →metallic-like conductivity Electron dope(donor)

  6. Discovery of superconductivity in Diamond onset 4K offset 2.3K Ekimov, et al., Nature 428, 542 (2004)

  7. Application hardest material chemically stable material high thermal conductivity Electronic property Diamond insulator semiconductor superconductor metal B-doping hybrid electronic device

  8. onset 4K offset 2.3K Superconductivity takes place in the diamond at the interface between graphite and B4C Ekimov, et al., Nature 428, 542 (2004) Synthesis under high pressure (8~9GPa) and high temperature(2,800K)

  9. onset 4K offset 2.3K superconductor At 2.3K,the sample shows Meissner effect (perfect diamagnetism) the onset of perfect diamagnetism corresponds to zero resistance. perfect diamagnetism :完全反磁性

  12. normal S.C Property of diamond film Type II superconductor Hc2(T=0K)~5.12T →ξ~100Å (ξ: coherence length) >>9Å(average length between of boron atoms) Takano et.al.Appl .Phys.Lett., 85, 4 2004

  13. (100) Homoepitaxial film bus Bustarret.et al. PRL,93,237005(2004) Tc(onset)=2.5K ΔTc is very narrow

  14. Tc(offset) vs. Boron concentration (111) epitaxial film has the higher Tc than (100) Umezawa et al.condmat-05503303

  15. superconductivity appears in the vicinity of metal-insulator transition resistivity at room temperature J.-P. Lagrange et al. D.R.M 7 (1998) 1390–1393

  16. Summary • Discovery of the superconductivity in the Boron-doped diamond by high pressure method and MPCVD method • (111) epitaxial film has the higher Tc than (100) • The superconductivity in diamond takes place in vicinity of metal-insulator transition
