Ambient temperature thermal conductivity of YBa2Cu3O7-x

A comparative method was used to measure the thermal conductivity λ of a YBa2Cu3O7−x sample over the temperature range 305–360 K. Using one sample, data were obtained at two different x levels. Surprisingly, the smaller x value (higher Tc) produced a lower thermal conductivity. This observation is d...

Zusammenfassung:A comparative method was used to measure the thermal conductivity λ of a YBa2Cu3O7−x sample over the temperature range 305–360 K. Using one sample, data were obtained at two different x levels. Surprisingly, the smaller x value (higher Tc) produced a lower thermal conductivity. This observation is discussed in terms of scattering of phonons by point defects and electrons.
