Charge transfer mechanism and Tc(x) dependence in Y0.8(Ca)0.2Ba2Cu3O6+x

We propose a model for charge transfer mechanism in Y0.8(Ca)0.2Ba2Cu3O6+x to count hole doping of CuO2 planes and x dependence of critical transition temperature T_c. It is assumed the total number of doped holes in the planes is sum of holes that are introduced through two separate channels: substi...

Description
Summary:We propose a model for charge transfer mechanism in Y0.8(Ca)0.2Ba2Cu3O6+x to count hole doping of CuO2 planes and x dependence of critical transition temperature T_c. It is assumed the total number of doped holes in the planes is sum of holes that are introduced through two separate channels: substitution of Y3+ by Ca2+ and from CuO chains that are longer than a minimal (critical) length l_min needed for charge transfer to take place. The T_c(x) dependence is obtained by combining calculated x dependence of doping, p(x), and universal T_c versus p relation. Although calculated T_c(x) dependences for l_min=3 and l_min=4 both remarkably correlate to the experimental T_c(x), we argue that the value l_min=4 gives a reasonable overall agreement.
