Non-Phonon Mechanisms of Superconductivity in High Tc Superconducting Oxides and Other Materials and their Manifestation

  • Chapter
Novel Superconductivity

Abstract

Low dimensionality and the unusual parameter values in the high Tc materials lead to a key contribution of the plasmon mechanism of superconductivity. In addition, these systems provide a unique opportunity to observe a multigap structure. The problem of the lattice instability is discussed. A manifestation of non-phonon mechanisms (NPM) in Nb3Ge and the contribution of the intramolecular vibrations are analyzed. Proximity systems containing high Tc superconductors are promising from the point of view of possible applications.
