Abstract
It was shown recently, that high-temperature superconductors (HTSC) with perovskite-like structure are characterized by giant (up to 10−4) magnetostriction. It means, that they are potential candidates for magnetostrictive applications. This observation attracted a number of experimental and theoretical studies of magnetostriction in the related materials. The reported activity is THE FIRST structural study of magnetostriction in superconductors. We studied layered superconductors, the high-temperature ones with rare earth substitutions, corresponding to different levels of doping (concentration of carriers) and layered dichalcogenides in order to explain the volume changes at low temperatures below the superconducting transition. Therefore dilatometric, neutron and X-ray diffraction studies above and below Tc, including measurements in magnetic field, were performed. Preliminary X-ray measurements have shown sufficient differences of the unit cell volumes in normal and superconducting state. The calculated lattice parameters revealed a pronounced change of the unit cell volume. Negative thermal expansion was observed and explained in detail.
