Infrared studies of textured ceramic high-Tc superconductors
Abstract
The surfaces of ceramic samples of high-temperature superconductors can have a high degree of crystalline orientation, depending of the way in which they are prepared. (In particular it is essential that the sample not be polished in an attempt to “improve” the optical quality.) The surfaces of these textured ceramic samples consist of small crystallites, with about 80% orientation of the crystallographic c axis normal to the surface. The …
