Growth of high-quality Bi2Sr2 CaCu2O8+δ whiskers and electrical properties of resulting exfoliated flakes

Abstract In this work, we demonstrate a simple technique to grow high-quality whiskers of Bi2 Sr2 CaCu2 O8+δ – a high T c superconductor. Structural analysis shows the single-crystalline nature of the grown whiskers. To probe electrical properties, we exfoliate these whiskers into thin flakes (~50 n...
