C. Niedermayer et al., MAGNETIC PENETRATION DEPTH OF TL2BA2CUO6-TC-INFINITY-SIGMA-O IN THE OVERDOPED REGION(DELTA), Journal of superconductivity, 7(1), 1994, pp. 165-168
We report transverse-field muon-spin-rotation experiments carried out
on T12Ba2CuO6+delta. This system spans the whole overdoped regime, and
T(c) is reduced by excess oxygen doping, which increases the normal-s
tate carrier concentration. In the heavily overdoped regime sigma(0) i
s found to scale linearly with the superconducting critical temperatur
e T(c), similar to the behavior previously observed for other cuprates
in the underdoped regime. However, for the overdoped region one has t
o explain the reduction of sigma0, thus the increase of the magnetic p
enetration depth lambda, in spite of an increasing normal-state carrie
r concentration. We discuss some possible explanations for this behavi
or.
