概要 We report on the interlayer infrared response of YBa2 Cu3 Oy in an applied magnetic field. This study explores both the underdoped (y=6.67 and 6.75) and optimally doped (y=6.95) regions of the phase diagram, and includes data for fields applied both parallel to the c axis and to the CuO2 planes in this anisotropic superconductor. We focus on the transfer of optical conductivity spectral weight from high-frequency regions of the spectrum to the nondissipative superconducting condensate, and examine the effect of magnetic field upon this process. A sum-rule analysis reveals that magnetic fields H/c eliminate the high-frequency contribution to the superfluid density, returning the system to a more BCS-like energy scale. For fields H/ CuO2, however, the high-energy contribution scales with the superfluid density, and the anomalous scheme of condensate formation is maintained, at least in underdoped y=6.67 and 6.75 samples. This behavior is discussed in relation to the change in electronic kinetic energy and shown to be closely related to the suppression of interplane phase coherence. © 2009 The American Physical Society.
