Surface Electrical Conductivity Measurement System with Micro-Four-Point Probes at Sub-Kelvin Temperature under High Magnetic Field in Ultrahigh Vacuum
2012
We have constructed an ultrahigh vacuum system in which surface conductivity is measured in situ by microfour-point probe method down to 0.8 K, combined with conventional surface preparation/analysis capability. In order to reduce the data scattering due to changes of the probe spacing, we have employed a dual configuration method in which the combinations with current/voltage probes are switched. The surface-state superconductivity of Si(111)- √ 7 × √ 3-In surface superstructure was confirmed with the critical temperature of 2.8 K. The critical magnetic field was 0.3-0.4 T in the surface-normal direction. [DOI: 10.1380/ejssnt.2012.400]
