The Dependence of T c on Hydrostatic Pressure in Superconducting MgB
The dependence of Tc on pure hydrostatic pressure has been determined for the first time on the recently discovered superconductor MgB2 . Using a He-gas apparatus, we find that Tc decreases under pressure to 0.5 GPa at a significantly smaller rate, dTc/dP ≃ −1.11± 0.02 K/GPa, than found in other studies under less hydrostatic pressure conditions. The value of the logarithmic volume derivative, ...
متن کامل1 M ay 2 00 1 The Dependence of T c on Hydrostatic Pressure in Superconducting MgB
The dependence of Tc on hydrostatic (He-gas) pressure for superconducting MgB2 has been determined to 0.7 GPa. We find that Tc decreases linearly and reversibly under pressure at the rate dTc/dP ≃ −1.11 ± 0.02 K/GPa. These studies were carried out on the same sample used in earlier structural studies under He-gas pressure which yielded the bulk modulus B = 147.2± 0.7 GPa. The value of the logar...
متن کاملSuperconductivity in single crystals of LaFePO
Single crystals of the compound LaFePO were prepared using a flux growth technique at high temperatures. Electrical resistivity measurements reveal metallic behavior and a resistive transition to the superconducting state at a critical temperature Tc ∼ 6.6 K. Magnetization measurements also show the onset of superconductivity near 6 K. In contrast, specific heat measurements manifest no discont...
متن کاملAuthor's personal copy Dependence of the superconducting transition temperature of the filled skutterudite compound PrPt4Ge12 on hydrostatic pressure
The temperature-dependent ac susceptibility of the filled skutterudite superconductor PrPt4Ge12 has been measured under hydrostatic He-gas pressure to 0.58 GPa. The superconducting transition temperature Tc decreases linearly with pressure P from 7.91 K at ambient pressure to 7.83 K at 0.58 GPa, giving the rate dTc/dP = 0.19 ± 0.03 K/GPa. Evidence is presented that suggests that the value of Tc...
متن کاملHydrostatic and uniaxial pressure dependence of superconducting transition temperature of KFe2As2 single crystals
We present heat capacity, c-axis thermal expansion and pressure-dependent, low-field, temperature-dependent magnetization for pressures up to ∼12 kbar, data for KFe2As2 single crystals. Tc decreases under pressure with dTc/dP≈−0.10 K/kbar. The inferred uniaxial, c-axis, pressure derivative is positive, dTc/dpc≈0.11 K/kbar. The data are analyzed in comparison with those for overdoped Fe-based su...
