Limitations on Electronic Mechanisms for High Temperature Superconducting Oxides

Published

Author(s)

Abstract

The effects of electronic mechanisms for electron pairing in high temperature superconducting oxides on both the transition temperature Tc and the isotope effect parameter α are considered. It is shown that for the higher Tc oxides, measured values of Tc and α together with estimates of the phonon contributions are not consistent with high-frequency electronic mechanisms. Limitations of the theory and some constraints on low-frequency electronic mechanisms are also discussed.
