摘要

The superconducting gap can be defined as the energy difference between the ground state of the superconductor and the energy of the lowest quasiparticle excitation [II. There were early hints that such a gap existed but the first experimental evidence for a gap came from the temperature dependence of the specific heat below the transition temperature T as measured by Corak et al. [2]. It was found that the electronic specific heat was given by Cec.7T ce-1.5 TcIT where y is the normal state electronic specific heat coefficient and T the superconducting transition temperature. The first spectroscopic measurement of the energy gap was carried out with microwaves by Biondi et a1131 on aluminum and far infrared techniques by Glover et al [4] on lead. At the same time, the microscopic theory of superconductivity, the BCS theory, was announced by Bardeen, Cooper and Schrieffer [5] who predicted the value of the ratio of the superconducting gap to the transition temperature to be 1.76 which is in excellent agreement with the spectroscopic measurements. This was one of the earliest triumphs of the theory. It should be noted that this value of the gap is from the weak coupling limit of the theory and applies to materials with low Te's such as aluminum. For conventional superconductors, tunnelling spectroscopy [6] has been a popular tool for gap measurement but for the new high temperature superconductors, with their larger gaps, infrared and photoemission spectroscopies have played an increasingly important role.
