Abstract
By exposure of YBa2Cu3O7 to hydrogen at moderate temperatures, the sup erconductivity properties, T-c and Meissner volume fraction, are, depe nding on the treatment conditions, differently affected. Although no m ajor changes are detected by X-ray diffraction, the microstructure of the obtained products is quite complex, and a significant amount of di sorder is produced. The results are also compared with those produced in the reduction performed with n-butyllithium.
