G. Moiseev et al., POSSIBLE COMPOSITION CHANGES OF THE YBA2CU3OX SURFACE-LAYER ON THE BOUNDARY WITH NEGATIVE CHARGE, Ceramics-Silikaty, 38(3-4), 1994, pp. 143-149
Ideal (x = 7) and close to real (x = 6.85) composition of the YBa2Cu3O
x superconductor can be assumed to change on the boundary with negativ
e charge surface. The two used methods of calculation (generalized mea
surements and absorption) show a considerable reduction of copper ion
valence.
