Abstract

The temperature dependent (30 K to 300 K) Doppler broadening of the positron annihilated g-radiation (DBPAR) measurement has been carried out on single crystalline Bi-2212 high Tc superconducting sample along two different crystallographic orientations. It has been observed that throughout the temperature range the electron momentum distribution has a relatively large value along the crystallographic c-axis than a-b plane. The temperature dependent DBPARL analysis shows a step like increase of S-parameter at the temperature region 92 K to 116 K.
