Electrostatic Modulation of the Superfluid Density in a Ultrathin La2-xSrxCuO4 Film
By capacitively charging an underdoped ultrathin La2-xSrxCuO4 film with an electric field applied across a gate insulator with a high dielectric constant, relative changes of the areal superfluid density n_{s\Box}$ of unprecedented strength were observed in measurements of the film kinetic inductance. Although $n_{s\Box}$ appears to be substantially reduced by disorder, the data provide, for the first time on the same sample, direct compelling evidence for the Uemura relation $T_{c} \propto n_{s\Box}(T=0)$ in the underdoped regime of copper-oxide superconductors.
