It is known that solid-state reaction in high-pressure oxygen can stabilize high-oxidation phases of Y-Ba-Cu-O superconductors in powder form. We extend this superoxygenation concept of synthesis to thin films which, due to their large surface-to-volume ratio, are more reactive thermodynamically. Epitaxial thin films of $rm{YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-delta}}$ grown by pulsed laser deposition are annealed at up to 700 atm O$_2$ and 900$^circ$C, in conjunction with Cu enrichment by solid-state diffusion. The films show clear formation of $rm{Y_2Ba_4Cu_7O_{15-delta}}$ and $rm{Y_2Ba_4Cu_8O_{16}}$ as well as regions of $rm{YBa_2Cu_5O_{9-delta}}$ and YBa$_2$Cu$_6$O$_{10-delta}$ phases, according to scanning transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and x-ray absorption spectroscopy. Similarly annealed $rm{YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-delta}}$ powders show no phase conversion. Our results demonstrate a novel route of synthesis towards discovering more complex phases of cuprates and other superconducting oxides.

High-temperature superconducting YBa2Cu3O7-d (YBCO) thin-film detectors with improved responsivities were developed for fast time-domain measurements in the THz frequency range. YBCO thin films of 30 nm thickness were patterned to micro- and nanobrid ges and embedded into planar log-spiral THz antennas. The YBCO thin-film detectors were characterized with continuous wave radiation at 0.65 THz. Responsivity values as high as 710 V/W were found for the YBCO nanobridges. Pulsed measurements in the THz frequency range were performed at the electron storage ring ANKA from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). Due to the high responsivities of the nanobridges no biasing was required for the detection of the coherent synchrotron radiation pulses achieving very good agreement between the measured pulse shapes and simulations.
We report the fabrication of high Tc superconducting wires by photodoping a GdBa2Cu3O{6.5} thin film. An optical near-field probe was used to locally excite carriers in the system at room temperature. Trapping of the photogenerated electrons define a confining potential for the conducting holes in the CuO planes. Spatially resolved reflectance measurements show the photogenerated nanowires to be ~ 250 nm wide. Electron diffusion, before electron capture, is believed to be responsible for the observed width of the wires.
A polarity-dependent reversible change in the current-voltage characteristics between states corresponding to different values of the excess current ${{I}_{exc}}$ is observed for bias voltages of several hundred millivolts in $Ag-ReB{{a}_{2}}C{{u}_{3 }}{{O}_{7-x}}$ $left( Retext{ }=text{ }Y,text{ }Ho right)$ point contacts in the current-carrying state. The observed effect has a high intensity (right up to a complete suppression or recovery of ${{I}_{exc}}$) and is not accompanied by a noticeable variation of the energy gap or the critical temperature in the point contact region. It is also established that the states with intermediate values of $I_{exc}$ are stable for zero bias voltages across the point contacts, at least up to $110 K$. It is assumed that the variation of ${{I}_{exc}}$ and the corresponding modification of IVC are due to the oxygen migration processes induced by the electric field and current, resulting in a local variation of the superconducting parameters in the point-contact region.
The structure and physical properties of superconducting compounds Y(La)-Ba(Sr)-Cu-O are studied, the compounds being prepared by the method of cryogenic dispersion of a charge consisting of premix oxides and carbonates. Electrical conductivity and c ritical current density of the superconductors are measured over a wide temperature range of 10~$mK$ to 300~$K$. Degradation of the superconductor critical parameters in time and structural characteristics, magnetic susceptibility, heat capacity and acoustic properties are studied, and current-voltage characteristics are determined.

We demonstrate that the spin dynamics in underdoped Y(1-z)Ca(z)Ba(2)Cu(3)O(y) for y=~6.0 exhibit qualitatively the same behavior to underdoped La(2-x)Sr(x)CuO(4) for an equal amount of hole concentration p=z/2=x<0.11. However,a spin-gap appears as mo re holes are doped into the CuO(2) plane by increasing the oxygen concentration to y=~6.5 for a fixed value of Ca concentration z. Our results also suggest that Ca doping causes disorder effects that enhance the low frequency spin fluctuations.
