✦ Synopsis
We report an infrared reflectivity study of epitaxial YBa2Cu307-6 thin films. Results for samples with different values of To, obtained by Fe doping or ion bombardment, give evidence for a gap 2A(0) ~ 7 kBTc. For ion bombarded films we find a soft mode that may correspond to a giant-amplitude oxygen vibration. The dynamical conductivity in the normal state can be described by a strongly frequency dependent conductivity in the Cu02 planes and a weakly frequency dependent conductivity in the Cu03 chains.

We present the midinfrared conductivity of a YBa2(Cu0.94Ni0.0~)s O7.~ film determined from fitting the measured infrared reflectance with a two-component model. To a first approximation, the "best-fit" midinfrared band conductivity is independent of T, in agreement with the midinfrared band used pre
