Hydrostatic Pressure Effects on Superconductive Phase Transitions in Y 1-x Ca x Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-? and Y(Ba 1-y La y ) 2 Cu 3 O 7-?

Pressure effects on the superconductive transitions of cation replaced YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-? : Y 1- x Ca x Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-? (0? x ?0.2) and Y(Ba 1- y La y ) 2 Cu 3 O 7-? (0? y ?0.15) were investigated. The electric resistivity was measured up to 2 GPa as a function of temperature. The d T c /d p decreases...

Description
Summary:Pressure effects on the superconductive transitions of cation replaced YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-? : Y 1- x Ca x Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-? (0? x ?0.2) and Y(Ba 1- y La y ) 2 Cu 3 O 7-? (0? y ?0.15) were investigated. The electric resistivity was measured up to 2 GPa as a function of temperature. The d T c /d p decreases with increasing y for Y(Ba 1- y La y ) 2 Cu 3 O 7-? , giving 1.0 K/GPa for YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-? and 2.9 K/GPa for Y(Ba 0.85 La 0.15 ) 2 Cu 3 O 7-? . For La replacement, the oxygen content was almost unchanged. Therefore, the replacement of Y by La led to electron doping. The pressure derivative of T c indicates that the pressure induces hole doping whose effect is increased with the increase of La contant. Contrary to our expectation, Y 1- x Ca x Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-? was not hole-doped but electron-doped because of the increase in the oxygen deficiency with Ca content. However the d T c /d p is almost independent of x .
