Abstract

We studied the tunneling density of states in YBa2Cu3O7−δ films under strong currents flowing along node directions. The currents were induced by fields of up to 32.4 T parallel to the film surface and perpendicular to the CuO2 planes. We observed an interesting transition in the tunneling conductance at high fields where the gaplike feature shifts discontinuously from 15 meV to a lower bias of 11 meV, becoming more pronounced as the field increases. The effect takes place in increasing fields around 9 T and the transition back to the initial state occurs around 5 T in decreasing fields.
