Abstract

A direct determination of the relationship between Tc and hole concentration p for Y1−xCaxBa2Cu3O7−δ is obtained by investigating the properties of the fully oxygen-deficient (δ≊1.0) compound for which p=x/2. Measurements of Tc, the thermoelectric power S, and bond-valence sums calculated from neutron-diffraction refinements for various values of x and δ allow the full determination of the relations p=p(δ), Tc=Tc(p), and S=S(T,p) confirming that YBa2Cu3O7−δ satisfies the same universal relations in these quantities as the other high-Tc superconducting cuprates.
