Tunneling study of superconductivity near the metal-insulator transition
- 1. AT and T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey 07974
Description
By electron tunneling we have studied the superconducting properties of granular aluminum as one approaches the metal-insulator transition. We find that with increasing sample resistivity, the superconducting energy-gap edge broadens because of lifetime effects until that broadening becomes comparable to the gap. At this point, superconductivity disappears
