Abstract We have observed a δ-independent linear pressure effect on Tc of HgBa2CuO4+δ under hydrostatic pressures up to 1.7 GPa for δ≤0.30 but a nonlinear effect for δ〉0.30. These results, together with previous doping data, show a possible non-rigidity of the electron bands of the compounds, based on which previous phenomenological models of the pressure effect on Tc are built, and thus suggest only a restricted universality for the inverse parabolic relation between Tc and charge carriers per CuO2-layer. In other words, factors in addition to charge carriers can affect high temperature superconductivity.
