Abstract

A brief survey over the experimental and theoretical status concerning the strength of the electron-phonon coupling in high-T c oxides is given. We then discuss calculations of the Eliashberg function α 2 F(ω) and the related transport function α 2tr F(ω) for YBa2Cu3O7 based on a screened ionic model (rigidly shifted ionic potentials which are screened by a background dielectric constant ∈ and by two-dimensional charge carriers within the RPA). Using these functions results for superconductivity-induced changes in several lattice properties (k=0 and K≠0 phonons, Debye-Waller factor and kinetic energy of an ion) and the temperature dependence of the resistivity are discussed and compared with other calculations and experimental data.
