Abstract

The superconductivity in FexCu1−xBa2YCu2O7+y superconductors (0.00⩽x⩽0.70) is improved by high-pressure (HP) synthesis. The HP samples have higher oxygen content than the ambient pressure (AM) samples. Mössbauer effect studies confirmed that the high-pressure synthesis changes the local structure on the atomic scale. For the HP samples Fe (2) in the CuO2 planes has highly symmetric pyramidal-oxygen coordination. The tetragonal coordinated Fe (1) in the CuOx chains disappears and becomes the one having fivefold and sixfold oxygen coordination after the high-pressure synthesis. This suggests that the increase of oxygen content and the change of local structure are important reasons for the improvement of superconductivity in the HP samples.
