The rapid increase of the Josephson free energy as the temperature of a tunneling junction drops below the superconducting transition temperature T c is shown to make this transition of first order in a system in which the phase difference ϕ across the junction is constrained to have a nonzero value. Taking this effect into account, we introduce an availability potential governing the nonisothermal dynamics of the junction which, in contrast with previous results, has no artifacts like latent heat being released upon entering the — high temperature — normal state or a value in this state which depends on the — superconducting — phase difference. The thermodynamic analysis is preceded by a detailed calculation of the Josephson coupling in a model of two ideal BCS superconductors coupled by a tunneling Hamiltonian.

A Mott insulator sometimes induces unconventional superconductivity in its neighbors when doped and/or pressurized. Because the phase diagram should be strongly related to the microscopic mechanism of the superconductivity, it is important to obtain the global phase diagram surrounding the Mott insulating state. However, the parameter available for controlling the ground state of most Mott insulating materials is one-dimensional owing to technical limitations. Here, we present a two-dimensional ground-state mapping for a Mott insulator using an organic field-effect device by simultaneously tuning the bandwidth and bandfilling. The observed phase diagram showed many unexpected features such as an abrupt first-order superconducting transition under electron doping, a recurrent insulating phase in the heavily electron-doped region, and a nearly constant superconducting transition temperature in a wide parameter range. These results are expected to contribute toward elucidating one of the standard solutions for the Mott-Hubbard model.

We have studied the superconducting transition and the magnetoconductivity fluctuations in the polycrystalline Y3Ba5Cu8O[Formula: see text] (Y358) superconductor under magnetic fields upto 1 T. A two-step superconducting transition could be observed as a consequence of the granular structure of the sample, which is strongly affected by the applied magnetic field. Gaussian and genuine critical 3D-XY-E fluctuation regimes were identified. A critical scaling regime beyond 3D-XY was identified for magnetic fields upto 0.25 T, corresponding to the averaged exponent 0.19 and suggesting the occurrence of the weak first-order character of the superconducting transition. In the approximation to the zero resistance a power law regime could be observed, corresponding to the averaged exponent 2.37, which are smaller than previously reported for the Y358 system. Our results are discussed in terms of the Y358 and YBa2Cu3O[Formula: see text](Y123) results in the literature.

The specific heat, C p , has been measured with high precision in a mono-crystal of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7−δ (YBCO) superconductor in the temperature range 55K-300K. The measurements provide data with a relative resolution Δ C p / C p of approximately 5 · 10−4. The main conclusions are: 1) Close to the superconducting transition the specific heat shows influence of fluctuations. 2) A reversible second order or weakly first order phase transition is found to occur at T o = 229 K .
