Using classical molecular dynamics based on Lennard–Jones-like potentials, a mechanically stable YBa2Cu3O7 high Tc superconductor structure is generated. This process is controlled via interactive computer graphics. After doping atoms into or removing atoms from the sample using a recently implemented picking mechanism, the lattice oscillation energy is annihilated with a simulated annealing procedure. The remaining minimum ground state energy allows marking of the preferred doping location. Information on the doping mechanism is important because the magnetic and superconducting properties of these compounds depend very strongly on their oxygen content.

Several samples of K 3 C 60 have been made by the calcination of C 60 powder plus K flakes in evacuated quartz tubes at temperatures between 100°C and 700°C for 24 hours. The non-resonant microwave absorption (NRMA) measurements have been done below T c for these samples. From the linewidths and intensities of the NRMA signals, the superconducting properties (T c superconducting volume fraction and vortex size) have been studied as a function of the calcination temperature.

We discuss a few possibilities of high- T c superconductivity with more than one orbital symmetry contributing to the pairing. First, we show that the high energies of orbital excitations in various cuprates suggest a simplified model with a single orbital of x 2 − y 2 symmetry doped by holes. Next, several routes towards involving both e g orbital symmetries for doped holes are discussed: (i) some give superconductivity in a CuO 2 monolayer on Bi2212 superconductors, Sr 2 CuO 4 − δ , Ba 2 CuO 4 − δ , while (ii) others as nickelate heterostructures or Eu 2 − x Sr x NiO 4 , could in principle realize it as well. At low electron filling of Ru ions, spin-orbital entangled states of t 2 g symmetry contribute in Sr 2 RuO 4 . Finally, electrons with both t 2 g and e g orbital symmetries contribute to the superconducting properties and nematicity of Fe-based superconductors, pnictides or FeSe. Some of them provide examples of orbital-selective Cooper pairing.

We report here on the structural and superconducting properties of RE 1 - 2x Pr x Ca x Sr 0.8 Ba 1.2 Cu 3 O 7 - δ (RE = Er and Gd, 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2) high temperature superconductors. The transition temperature (Tc) of these compounds decreases when the Pr and Ca concentrations are increased. At constant Pr and Ca concentrations, the Tc of Er 1 - 2x Pr x Ca x Sr 0.8 Ba 1.2 Cu 3 O 7 - δ superconductor system is higher than that observed for the Gd 1 - 2x Pr x Ca x Sr 0.8 Ba 1.2 Cu 3 O 7 - δ system. For the Gd 0.8 Pr 0.1 Ca 0.1 Sr 0.8 Ba 1.2 Cu 3 O 7 - δ sample, after heating in argon followed by oxygen annealing, the orthorhombicity increases accompanied by 10 K increase in Tc. These results show that though our data indicate an ion-size effect, the Tc suppression rate dTc/dx depends very much on the heat treatment adopted to prepare the samples.

ABSTRACTThe substituted oxides Bi2Sr2−xLaxCuO6+y and Bi2Sr2Ca1−xYxCu2O8+y isostructural to the n = 1 and n = 2 members of the high Tc superconductors have been prepared. The solid solution Bi2Sr2−xLaxCuO6+y shows a superconducting transition for 0.2–0.25<x<0.5 with an onset Tc near 30K and zero resistance temperatures which depend on x and the heat treatment. For x = 1 the isostructural phases Bi2ALaCuO6.5+y with A = Ca or Ba have also been synthesized and are not superconducting. A modelfor the localization of the oxygen atoms is proposed based on neutron diffraction of Bi2Sr1.6La0.4CuO6+y and Bi2CaLaCuO6+y.The Bi2Sr2Ca1−xYxCu2O8+y solid solution exhibits a superconducting transition for 0<x <0.7. The critical temperature remains almost constant (85–90K) for 0<x <0.3 and then decreases rapidly. The oxygen content value 8.65 for Bi2Sr2YCu2O8+y agrees well with the increase of the positive charge when calcium is replaced by yttrium.
