In this paper we report preliminary results about transition temperatures of YBa2Cu3O7 pellets loaded with high pressure deuterium gas. After the gas loading non-superconducting phases were not detected by X-ray diffraction. The complex magnetic ac susceptibility has been measured as a function of the temperature. One D-YBCO pellet exhibited a magnetic critical temperature (Tc) as high as 100 K and the absence of a significant weakening of the superconducting grain coupling. Another sample, with a Tc of 95.8 K in free air, showed a Tc onset as high as 102 K under 35 bar of deuterium gas pressure.

Abstract
In this paper we report preliminary results about transition temperatures of YBa2Cu3O7 pellets loaded with high pressure deuterium gas. After the gas loading non-superconducting phases were not detected by X-ray diffraction. The complex magnetic ac susceptibility has been measured as a function of the temperature. One D-YBCO pellet exhibited a magnetic critical temperature (Tc) as high as 100 K and the absence of a significant weakening of the superconducting grain coupling. Another sample, with a Tc of 95.8 K in free air, showed a Tc onset as high as 102 K under 35 bar of deuterium gas pressure.File in questo prodotto:
