Abstract

The effects of photoinduced hole doping, caused by persistent photoconductivity, on the normal and superconducting properties of YBa2Cu3Oy (6.35≤y≤6.70) thin films are studied using a high-power-density He-Ne laser light. Substantial photoinduced enhancements of both the normal conductivity and Tc are found for all the films. Hall measurements reveal that the number of photoinduced holes depends only on the photon dose and is independent of the oxygen content. The enhanced Tc has a nearly quadratic correlation with the hole density similar to that observed in YBa2Cu3Oy when the hole density is varied by adding oxygen to the CuOx chain.
