A study of the specific heat of high-purity single-phase dhcp La shows that this material is an intrinsic type-II superconductor with a K of about 2.4. The temperature dependence of the free energy is characteristic of an intermediate coupling superconductor with 2b/k8 T, = 3.7.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
