C. Bucci et al., PENETRATION DEPTH ANISOTROPY IN YBA2(CU(1-Y)M(Y))(3)O-7-X (M=ZN,NI) ORIENTED POWDERS BY MU-SR, Physica. C, Superconductivity, 235, 1994, pp. 1849-1850
Penetrations depth is measured in YBa2(Cu1-xZnx)(3)O-7 and YBa2(Cu1-yN
iy)(3)O-7-x oriented powders by Muon Spin Rotation. The observed aniso
tropy in the effective mass tenser and the relation between T-c and th
e mu SR damping sigma point to the existence of additional contributio
ns to the depression of the superconductivity that cannot be accounted
for in simple terms of carrier concentration.
