Abstract
In highly anisotropic layered cuprates such as Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x tunneling measurements on a stack of intrinsic junctions in a high-bias range are often susceptible to self-heating. In this study we monitored the temperature variation of a stack ("sample stack") of intrinsic junctions by measuring the resistance change of a nearby stack ("thermometer stack") of intrinsic junctions, which was strongly thermal-coupled to the sample stack through a common Au electrode. We then adopted a proportional-integral-derivative scheme incorporated with a substrate-holder heater to compensate the temperature variation. This in-situ temperature monitoring and controlling technique allows one to get rid of spurious tunneling effects arising from the self-heating in a high bias range.
