Abstract

We study the Josephson plasma resonance (JPR) in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+y (BSCCO) with spatially dependent interlayer phase coherence (IPC). The half-irradiated BSCCO (HI-BSCCO), in which columnar defects are introduced only in a half of the sample, shows several resonance peaks, which are not simple superposition of the peaks in irradiated and pristine parts. JPR in HI-BSCCO changes its character from irradiated to pristine type at a crossover frequency (ωcr). We demonstrate that the one-dimensional linearized sine-Gordon equation, which takes into account the spatial dependence of IPC, can reproduce most of the experimental findings including the presence of ωcr.
