The author reviews some of the important successes achieved by Eliashberg theory in
describing the observed superconducting properties of many conventional superconductors …

The observation of vortices in superconductors was a major breakthrough in develo** the
conceptual background for superconducting applications. Each vortex carries a flux …

This is a revised version of the first edition published in 1991. At the same time, this is a
revised version of the Syokabo edition, which was written in Japanese and published in …

Measurements of the transport critical‐current density (J c), magnetization J c, and
magnetoresistance in a number of bulk sintered samples of Y1Ba2Cu3O x from several …

The results of a polarized light scattering study of single-crystal YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− δ are
presented. Strong interband electronic scattering in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7− δ is observed through …

An analysis of the resistivity above T c in the oxide superconductors shows that the inelastic-
scattering rate is several times kT. This inelastic scattering yields pair breaking which …

A scanning tunnelling microscope can image surfaces down to the atomic scale. Its very
high resolution is caused by its local probing mechanism: a tunnel current which flows …

The review deals with the main results of a consistent study of electron-lattice interaction in
crystals in the strong-coupling limit. Small polaron and bipolaron formation is shown to …

The linear conductance background observed in tunneling into the high-T c
superconductors has often been interpreted as a density-of-states effect. Here we argue that …

We report a Raman scattering investigation of superconducting gap anisotropy in single-
crystal Y Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7− δ. Gap anisotropy is investigated by studying the peak in the low …
