Probing the superconducting transition in a cuprate superconductor by multi-dimensional terahertz spectroscopy — •Albert Liu1, Danica Pavicevic1, Michael Fechner1, Pedro Lozano2, Genda Gu2, and Andrea Cavalleri1,3 — 1Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter, Hamburg, Germany — 2Brookhaven National Laboratory, New York, USA — 3Oxford University, Oxford, UK
We develop two-dimensional terahertz spectroscopy in both a non-collinear and reflection geometry. We demonstrate the technique by distilling the terahertz optical response of a superconducting plasma into its constituent nonlinearities, up to fifth-order. Subsequent measurements at temperatures approaching and crossing the phase transition reveal a phase-disordering transition in lieu of a BCS transition. An outlook for probing light-induced superconducting states will be provided.
