High-Temperature Superconductors

The aim of this book is to acquaint the reader with the phenomenon of superconductivity and the high temperature superconductors discovered in 1986 by Bednorz and Muller. Just after this discovery, a lot of research work was carried out by the scientists worldwide over for more than about 10 years. This book describes the superconductivity phenomenon (Chap. 1), the structure of high Tc super…
