Mechanisms of Heat Conduction in High-Tc Superconductors

  • Chapter
Book cover Superconductivity and Applications

Abstract

Much excitement has been generated by the discovery of high-Tc superconductivity by Bednorz and Müller1 and by the subsequent rapid development culminating in the synthesis of novel superconducting structures with transition temperatures at 90K and beyond.2–4 Suddenly a whole spectrum of perovskite-related structures has become available upon which one can model theoretical ideas spanning from ordinary to exotic forms of superconductivity. At the same time, material scientists and physicists have been working hard to find ways to make these fascinating materials more mechanically amenable and to improve their superconducting properties.
