✦ Synopsis


Specific heat, Cp, data in the range 0.4 to 20 K for three polycrystalline specimens of Bi2Sr2CuO6 (2 : 2: 0: 1 phase, TΒ’ ~ 8 K) are reported and compared with similar measurements made on Bi2SrLa3Cao.67CuO6 (Tc ~ 20 K) which is also of the 2:2:0:1 phase, but with partial substitution of Ca for Sr. No anomaly in Cp at Tc is observed in any of the specimens. Below ~ 2 K, an upturn in Cp/T is observed in all specimens. The coefficient of the linear term in Cp, Yo, is non-zero in all specimens, and is in the range 3 to 10 mJ / (mol K 2 ). A limiting value for the Debye temperature, 0 Β°, of 220 _+ 8 K is obtained.

The specific heat of four samples of the 81 K-superconductor YBa2Cu408 prepared under high oxygen pressure is investigated. The low-temperature specific heat is sample-dependent. For the most homogeneous sample, the coefftcient of the linear term at T=x T, is y\*= 4.9 f 0.2 mJ/ ( K2mole) and the in
