Abstract

The high-Tc superconductors R1Ba2Cu3O7−δ (R denotes rare-earth elements) and Y1Ba2Cu3O7−δ are prepared in several different processes. Y1Ba2Cu3O7−δ prepared in flowing O2 and slowly cooled shows Tc=94 K, a lattice parameter ratio c/b=3.00 and negative thermoelectric power S, while quench-cooled Y1Ba2Cu3O7−δ shows reduced Tc, an elongated structure along the c axis with c/b=3.02, and positive S. Most of the rare-earth-element superconductors show Tc near or higher than 90 K. Rare-earth-element superconductors with the rare-earth-element ionic radius larger than 0.92 Å show positive S, while those with the ionic radius smaller than 0.92 Å show negative S. These experimental results seem to indicate a close correlation between the structural strain and the superconducting properties.
