Abstract

This paper demonstrates that the incommensurate high-Tc superconductors Bi2Sr2Can−1CunO4+2n+δ can be viewed as being made up of two interpenetrating periodic crystals, each of which modulates the other. The periods of the two crystals are incommensurable along one of the crystallographic axes.
