Results show that there is an inner-orbitcoupling for these oxide superconductor systems. The inner-orbit coupling was resulted from theinteraction of two electronic orbits of RE 5p and O 2s, since they have similar energy state levelsand relatively larger orbital electronic clouds. Compared with experimental facts, it is also foundthat the overlap in space between the two orbits has a similar tendency to T_c and the number ofenrolling electrons has a close relation to J_c, therefore, the influence of inner-orbit coupling onsuperconductivity could not be overlooked.展开更多

The nominal composition was Y123+xwt% Y211+10 wt% Ag2O (x= 0,15,25,40).The result of magnetic measurements indicated the sample with x= 1 5 at 77 K exhibited a J0 of 3. 9 ×104 A/cm2 at 0.1 T and 2. 4 ×104A/cm2 at 1.0 T.The morphology of samples suggested that fine dispersed Y2BaCuO5 phase acts as effective pinning centers.展开更多

Through adjusting ingredients and preparation procedures, a pellet with 3. 5 cm in diameter and 0. 9 cm in thickness was synthesized. A mass of 1. 3 kg on a magnet can be levitated at about 1 mm height at 77 K. The XRD and SEM indicated that magnetic lifting property can be enhanced by addition of Ag2O and Y2BaCuO5.展开更多

Anomalous changes of both longitudinal and transverse velocities were observed near 200K, which indicates that some structural phase transitio might occur. The elastic constants of these samples have been determined from the measured ultrasonic velocity data, which are much smaller than those of YBa2 Cu3 O7-y and BaTiO3, manifesting that the interlayer coupling will dramatically decrease when the c - axes of the unit cells of these perovstite-like multilayer ceramics increase. The values of Poisson ratio, however, of those ceramics are very close, implying similar interatomic bonding forces. Corrected to void-free state, the Debye temperature of these materials is estirnated as 270 ±20k. The temperature dependence of Debye temperatures for these materials is also calculated by using the same method and reported for the first time.展开更多
