Popis: | We present measurements of the uniaxial pressure dependence ofT c of untwinned YBa2Cu3O7−δ crystals with various oxygen stoichiometries. For all samples investigated,T c decreases for pressure alonga, increases for pressure alongb, and, in oxygen deficient samples, increases strongly for pressure alongc. These results are compared to the behavior found in the La2−x Sr x CuO4 and YBa2Cu4O8 systems. Neither the model of pressure-induced charge transfer nor coupling to orthorhombic distortions can explain all the data. However, the presence of singularities in the electronic density of states close to the Fermi energy is a possible origin of the observed behavior. Our preliminary data on the pressure dependence of thec-axis and in-plane resistivities in twinned crystals are consistent with this view. |
