Abstract

By using high quality single crystals and epitaxial thin films, the in-plane paraconductivity in almost optimally doped YBa2Cu3O7−δ, with Tc0≳92K, was determined well inside the so-called short-wavelength fluctuation regime, which corresponds to reduced temperatures, ε≡ln(T/Tc0), above typically ε=0.1. It is then shown that these data may be explained in terms of the Gaussian-Ginzburg-Landau approach for bilayered superconductors by introducing a total energy cutoff, instead of the momentum cutoff approximation always used until now. These results seem to confirm the absence of appreciable pseudogap effects on the in-plane resistivity in optimally doped YBa2Cu3O7−δ superconductors.
