Popis: | The dependence of Tc on uniaxial pressure dTc/dpi(i= a, b, c) is determined for untwinned YBa2Cu3Ox single crystals as a function of O-content using ultrahigh-resolution thermal-expansion data and the Ehrenfest relationship. The dTc/dpi values are found to be highly anisotropic and are likely due to several different effects. For uniaxial-pressure applied parallel to the c-axis, we find a strong O-content (or carrier density) dependence of the dTc/dpb values, which have opposite signs charge transfer model. This model does not, however, explain the large dTc/dpa and dTc/dpb values, which have opposite signs and do not show a strong O-content dependence except at x=6.7, where both dTc/dpa and dTc/dpb values increase sharply. The a, b effects are discussed in terms of the orthorhombic distortion. |
