Abstract

We have measured the resistance response of a current biased YBa2Cu3O7-delta thin film (thickness approximately 700 angstrom) at temperatures below T(c) to pulsed laser radiation in a large spectral range from far-infrared waves to visible light. For generation of short pulses we used an optically pumped D2O Raman far-infrared laser and an infrared high pressure CO2 laser, both delivering pulses with durations less than 500 ps, and a Nd:YAG picosecond pulse laser. We found that the response time was less than 0.5 ns at far-infrared frequencies and increased strongly (to approximately 4 ns) at a critical frequency of about 7 THz. The slower response is consistent with heat escape from the film while the fast response may be connected with a nonequilibrium electronic effect.
