17 Nov 2003 | | Subject: | Superconductivity | cond-mat.supr-con | | Abstract: | We report the synthesis of new superconducting cuprates T’-La2-xRExCuO4 (RE = Sm, Eu, Tb, Lu, and Y) using molecular beam epitaxy. The new superconductors have no effective dopant, at least nominally. The substitution of isovalent RE for La was essentially performed to stabilize the T’ phase of La2CuO4 instead of the T phase. The maximum Tconset is ~ 25 K and Tczero is ~ 21 K. The keys to our discovery are (1) the preparation of high-crystalline-quality La-based T’ films by low-temperature (~650C) thin film processes, and (2) more thorough removal of impurity oxygen at the apical site, which is achieved by the larger in-plane lattice constant (a0) of T’-La2-xRExCuO4 than other T’-Ln2CuO4 (Ln = Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd) with the aid of large surface-to-volume ratio of thin films. The photoemission spectra suggest that the end member compounds of the T’ system may not be a Mott insulator. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0311380 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
