Subjecting the ceramic YBaCuO of the I-2-3 composition to shock compression (p=270 kbar) produces a ceramic of the same composition which under normal conditions (p=O,T=300K) has a tetragonal structure and undergoes a transition to the superconducting state at a temperature TcO~93K.

โฆ Synopsis
The temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity along the a and b axes of YBa2Cu306.9 has been measured in high-purity fully-detwinned single crystals. Below 300K, p a(T) is found to be perfectly linear, while p b(T) reveals a distinct upward curvature. Viewing the b-axis conductivity as the sum of parallel conductivities in the CuO2 planes and along the Cu-O chains, a T 2 dependence for the chain resistivity is obtained. Such a dependence, also observed in quasi-lD conductors, sheds light on a number of hitherto illidentified deviations from linearity reported recently. Above 300K, there is a steep linear increase in Pchain(T), most likely associated with the increased oxygen mobility.

We present results for the fluctuation-induced paraconductivity in YBa2Cu3Os.9 observed in the range Tc<T4130K. For the conductivity along the a-direction, we find that the deviation from the perfectly linear behaviour of p(T) (above 130K) cannot be described by the standard models [Aslamasov-Larkin
