The result of x-ray diffraction shows that the specimen is pure, and the lattice parameters decrease continuously in the semiconducting range, whereas it vibrates similarly to a sine wave in the superconducting range, which is ascribed to the existence of oxygen vacancies and the function of breathing modes of Bi(Pb)O6. The temperature dependence of resistivity indicates that the electrical property of the samples is connected sensitively with the crystal structures. Raman spectra show that the specimen becomes disorder when x increases, and the critical temperature To depends not only on the deformation potential of the soft A19 mode derived from the Bi(Pb)O6 rigid rotation, but also on the energy shift of the mode.展开更多

These compounds exhibit a cubic perovskite-related structure with the lattice parameter being expanded by Hg doping. Superconducting transition temperature Tc and superconducting volume fraction are suppressed by Hg doping in the low doping level region (0≤ x ≤0.25). However, further increasing Hg content makes the superconductivity recovered at x〉0.3. The superconductivity suppression in Hg-doped BaPb0.75Bi0.25O3 can be explained by the decrease of electron carrier concentration as well as the bandnarrowing-induced electron localization.展开更多
