“…In fact, the well known l:2:3-superconductors, i.e. MBa2Cu307-x where M = yttrium or lanthanide ions, have been shown to have T/s in the range 80-95 K (Wu, Ashburn, Torng, Hor, Meng, Gao, Huang, Wang & Chu, 1987) and, more recently, Bi and T1 cuprates have been prepared with a T~ up to 125 K, the highest value so far reported (Haldar, Chen, Maheswaran, Roig-Janicki, Jaggi, Markiewicz & Giessen, 1988, and references therein; Tallon, Buckley, Gilberd, Presland, Brown, Bowden, Christian & Goguel, 1988, and references therein).…”
