The La-Ba-Cu-O system contains several phases of special interest in the field of high Tc superconductivity. Specifically intriguing is the La3−xBa3+xCu6O4+y (“3–3–6”) phase [1,2], the La1·8 5Ba·1 5CuO4 (‘K2NiF4’) phase with a zero resistance temperature (Tc) of about 20 K [3,4], and the La1Ba2CU3O9–6 (“1–2–3”) phase with Tc's reported up to 75 K [5–7]. It has been suggested that the “3–3–6” phase may also be superconducting, especially in a Ba-doped version such that the stoichiometry is 2–4–6 [8–10]. In addition to defining a new high temperature superconducting phase, this latter suggestion would also rule out the possibility of Cu-0 “chains” being important to 90 K superconductivity since these chains are absent in the proposed configuration [1,2] of this phase.

Two batches of Y-Ba-Cu-O superconductors have been prepared. The zero resistance temperature is 90 K with Tc onset at 93 K and 95 K, respectively. Susceptibility measurements show superconducting phase at LN2. X-ray diffraction results indicates single phases.

ABSTRACTAs Bednorz and Muller noted in their original publication reporting on the discovery of high temperature superconductivity, their oxides present many of the features of granular superconductors. This behavior was first primarily ascribed to poor connectivity of the grains in the bulk ceramic samples. but later studies have pointed out to more fundamental reasons for these similarities. We will discuss them after first reviewing the well established properties of low Tc granular superconductors.

The X-ray powder diffraction pattern for a sample of the high-temperature superconducting phase Tl0.5Pb0.5Sr2CaCu2O6.5+δ has been determined. The sample was prepared by a molten salt technique and had a Tc of 96 K.

Two batches of Er-Ba-Cu-O superconductors have been prepared. The zero resistance temperature is 86 K with T c onsets at 99 K and 92 K respectively. Susceptibility measurements show superconducting phase at LN 2. X-ray diffraction results indicates two phases, the superconducting being the major one.

The system X–La–Cu–O is described as a Fermi liquid with antiferromagnetic interaction. This interaction gives rise to two types of fluctuations, magnetic and superconducting. As a result, we find a free energy which contains two order parameters which at high temperature give rise to superconductivity and at low temperature to reentry-like paramagnetism. For two-dimensional systems, topological effects give rise to fractional statistics and as a result superconductivity appears when the topological angle θ gives rise to a Bose statistic.
