Superconductivity of molybdenum and tungsten carbides

The superconducting critical temperatures of a total of 18 samples of α-Mo 2C, β-Mo 2C, η-MoC 1−x and α-W 2C have been determined resistively. The critical temperatures lie within the ranges 6°–7.3°, 5.1°–7.2°, 7.4°–8.9° and 2.95°–3.05°K, respectively. The critical temperature for β-Mo 2C is much hi...

Description
Summary:The superconducting critical temperatures of a total of 18 samples of α-Mo 2C, β-Mo 2C, η-MoC 1−x and α-W 2C have been determined resistively. The critical temperatures lie within the ranges 6°–7.3°, 5.1°–7.2°, 7.4°–8.9° and 2.95°–3.05°K, respectively. The critical temperature for β-Mo 2C is much higher than found previously, and similar to that for α-Mo 2C.
