Abstract

We report on a systematic investigation of the critical fluctuations in the complex conductivity of epitaxially grown Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ films for TTc using a two-coil inductive technique at zero applied field. We observe the static three-dimensional (3D) XY critical exponent in the superfluid density near Tc. Linear scaling analysis close to the critical temperature yields a dynamic critical exponent of z2.0 for small drive currents, but nonlinear effects are seen to be important. At Tc, a nonlinear scaling analysis also yields a 3D dynamic exponent of z=2.0±0.1.
