Could the oxygen superstructure in YBa2Cu3O6.35 exist?
Schreckenberg M. , Uimin G.
In order to explain why the real superstructure in the basal plane of ¥÷Á2óÉ306_|_È at x~0.35 can exist and be observed experimentally, it is necessary to invoke simple electrostatic and charge transfer mechanisms. The numerical estimates support the assumption that the superstructure [proposed by D. Hohlwein et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 66, 1497 (1991); Z. Phys. B86, 11 (1992)], which is formed by very short Cu-O-Cu chain fragments, can co-exist with the tetragonal phase which consists of short fragments arranged spatially at random.
