Abstract

The cation stoichiometric Bi2Sr2CuOδ was successfully obtained by solid state reaction under ambient oxygen pressures (Po2=0.2,1atm). The modulation period as estimated by means of X-ray powder diffraction was λ≅4.7b for Bi2Sr2CuOδ synthesized under Po2=1atm, which is shorter than that for Bi2.125Sr1.875CuOz (λ≅15b). The Bi2Sr2CuOδ synthesized under Po2=1 atm showed metallic conductivity down to 2K, whereas it done under Po2=0.2 atm showed superconductivity with Tc≈8K. By annealing in Ar, Tc was raised up to 16K. At the same time, it was newly found that the modulation is disproportionate into two types with λ≅4.7b and λ≅5.5b.
