Abstract
The focal environment of the apical oxygens (O-A) in the Sr-substitute d mercury-based superconductor Hg0.7Cr0.3Sr2CuO4+delta is investigated using Raman spectroscopy. Raman spectra from the Sr-substituted Hg-12 01 samples show broad O-A A(1g) double peaks at 553 and 583 cm(-1), wh ich are 10 - 20 cm(-1) lower than the pristine Hg-1201. The existence of, and lower shift of, the double peaks in the Raman spectra of the S r-substituted Hg-1201 superconductors indicate changes in the environm ent of O-A in the Sr-substituted mercury-based superconductors.
