Abstract

To open the 2nd NEC Symposium devoted to “Mechanisms of High-Temperature Superconductivity,” the progress that occurred since the discovery of the layered cuprate was reviewed. This was done by recalling first the knowledge gained by the end of 1987, and then referring to the substantial results achieved by fall of 1988. The emphasis was put on the experiments and the structural aspects, mainly because the author was more directly following these, but also as these are really relevant regarding the theoretical models. One may even say that so far the main advance took place on the empirical side.
