Cooper pair formation dynamics in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta

Abstract

We utilize ultrafast terahertz pulses to monitor the carrier dynamics in the high-TC superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta. The temperature, density and timedependence distinctly exposes a bimolecular recombination process of quasiparticles which underlies formation of Cooper pairs.
