Volume dependence of the superconducting transition temperature of quench-condensed be films

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

The volume dependence of the superconducting transition temperatureT c of quench-condensed Be films is investigated by bending the substrate of the film. Tensile strain causes an increase, compressive strain a decrease ofT c . The volume coefficientd lnT c /d lnV is about 0.8, a value which is small compared with those of other weakcopling non-transition metals. In addition to pure films, Be films stabilized by codeposition of noble metals or Ge are investigated.
