Abstract

A wide-band cryogenic ampli¯er measurement system for time-resolved 4-point VI-characteristic measurements on Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+± mesa structures is described. We present measurements which demonstrate the importance of self-heating on » 50 ns time scales. Such heating is likely to have been very signi¯cant in many previously published measurements, where the reported nonlinear VI characteristics have been used to derive superconducting energy gaps.
