ABSTRACTThe substituted oxides Bi2Sr2−xLaxCuO6+y and Bi2Sr2Ca1−xYxCu2O8+y isostructural to the n = 1 and n = 2 members of the high Tc superconductors have been prepared. The solid solution Bi2Sr2−xLaxCuO6+y shows a superconducting transition for 0.2–0.25<x<0.5 with an onset Tc near 30K and zero resistance temperatures which depend on x and the heat treatment. For x = 1 the isostructural phases Bi2ALaCuO6.5+y with A = Ca or Ba have also been synthesized and are not superconducting. A modelfor the localization of the oxygen atoms is proposed based on neutron diffraction of Bi2Sr1.6La0.4CuO6+y and Bi2CaLaCuO6+y.The Bi2Sr2Ca1−xYxCu2O8+y solid solution exhibits a superconducting transition for 0<x <0.7. The critical temperature remains almost constant (85–90K) for 0<x <0.3 and then decreases rapidly. The oxygen content value 8.65 for Bi2Sr2YCu2O8+y agrees well with the increase of the positive charge when calcium is replaced by yttrium.

We report here on the structural and superconducting properties of RE 1 - 2x Pr x Ca x Sr 0.8 Ba 1.2 Cu 3 O 7 - δ (RE = Er and Gd, 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2) high temperature superconductors. The transition temperature (Tc) of these compounds decreases when the Pr and Ca concentrations are increased. At constant Pr and Ca concentrations, the Tc of Er 1 - 2x Pr x Ca x Sr 0.8 Ba 1.2 Cu 3 O 7 - δ superconductor system is higher than that observed for the Gd 1 - 2x Pr x Ca x Sr 0.8 Ba 1.2 Cu 3 O 7 - δ system. For the Gd 0.8 Pr 0.1 Ca 0.1 Sr 0.8 Ba 1.2 Cu 3 O 7 - δ sample, after heating in argon followed by oxygen annealing, the orthorhombicity increases accompanied by 10 K increase in Tc. These results show that though our data indicate an ion-size effect, the Tc suppression rate dTc/dx depends very much on the heat treatment adopted to prepare the samples.

Gel Processing

Superconducting materials in the Bi–(Pb)–Sr–Ca–Cu–O system have been synthesized by sol-gel processing from nitrates by complexation with citric acid. The gelation process and the microstructures of the gels obtained have been studied through titration and SEM observation. Their phase transformations and microstructure development, during heat treatment, have also been investigated. The critical temperature Tc of superconductors by this sol-gel processing can reach above 100 K.

Extra Oxygen

Defects in the new superconducting materials play an important role and the superconducting properties are often influenced by their presence. In this review we will not consider the “classical” 1-2-3 compounds since they will be treated in a separate contribution.The Bi2Sr2CanCun+1Ox compounds show a strong intergrowth of lamellae of each of the phases corresponding with different n-values. An experimental relationship has been established between the n-values and the critical temperature for superconductivity; n=0,1,2 corresponding respectively with Tc values of 20K, 80K and 110K. Each of these phases is moreover incommensurately modulated. The origin of this modulation is still not definitively elucidated but we have performed a number of experiments and substitutions in order to get more information on the nature of this distortion. Several models are compared; the most likely one being the presence of extra oxygen in the BiO layers and the subsequent relaxation of the atom positions.

Jahn Teller Distortion

The preliminary study on the electron spin resonance (ESR) for the Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system with different superconducting transition temperatures has been made at room temperature. It is found that the Lande factor g-values are increased with increasing zero resistance temperature T c0 but width between peaks ΔH pp of the ESR spectrum decreased with increasing T c0 . These might be attributed to the spin-orbit coupling of the magnetic ions and the Jahn-Teller distortion in the perpendicular component.

Several samples of K 3 C 60 have been made by the calcination of C 60 powder plus K flakes in evacuated quartz tubes at temperatures between 100°C and 700°C for 24 hours. The non-resonant microwave absorption (NRMA) measurements have been done below T c for these samples. From the linewidths and intensities of the NRMA signals, the superconducting properties (T c superconducting volume fraction and vortex size) have been studied as a function of the calcination temperature.

We discuss a few possibilities of high- T c superconductivity with more than one orbital symmetry contributing to the pairing. First, we show that the high energies of orbital excitations in various cuprates suggest a simplified model with a single orbital of x 2 − y 2 symmetry doped by holes. Next, several routes towards involving both e g orbital symmetries for doped holes are discussed: (i) some give superconductivity in a CuO 2 monolayer on Bi2212 superconductors, Sr 2 CuO 4 − δ , Ba 2 CuO 4 − δ , while (ii) others as nickelate heterostructures or Eu 2 − x Sr x NiO 4 , could in principle realize it as well. At low electron filling of Ru ions, spin-orbital entangled states of t 2 g symmetry contribute in Sr 2 RuO 4 . Finally, electrons with both t 2 g and e g orbital symmetries contribute to the superconducting properties and nematicity of Fe-based superconductors, pnictides or FeSe. Some of them provide examples of orbital-selective Cooper pairing.
