A structual chemical model for high Tc ceramic superconductors is proposed in which carriers pairs, coupled through a superexchange process, undergo Bose condensation. In the Y-Ba-Cu-O system, Cu atoms on “chain” sites and “sheet” sites are initially assigned formal oxidation states of +3 and +2, respectively, and “sheet”/“chain” interactions are then introduced to bring about the electrically conductive mixed oxidation state. This model explains the presence of labile oxygen in the “chain” structures, describes the structure of deoxygenated phases exhibiting ordered oxygen vacancies in the “chains”, and allows interpretation of the effects of oxygen removal on magnetic and electronic properties of the material.

Microwave absorption measurements of the high T c ceramic superconductors reveal reproducible features in weak magnetic fields. These features are qualitatively explained by a quantum network model of these superconducting oxides. The ceramic superconductors are modeled as a set of one-dimensional wires weakly coupled at random nodes. The magnetoconductance, magnetization and susceptibility are computed from the network S-matrix.
