Anomalies in the Property Relationships Tending to Reinforce High Temperature Superconductivity in Cholates,

Abstract

In a previous report was shown a relationship between the transition temperature Tc, the isotope effect and the number of valence electrons per atom for a homologous series of the sodium salts of hydroxy cholanic acids (cholates). In this paper are shown further relationships between Tc of these cholates and such significant properties of superconductors as the lower critical magnetic field, Deybe temperature and the specific heat at constant pressure Cp. Plots of Delta Cp/Delta T vs T uncovered a possible other high temperature superconductor with a Tc = 450K which would be active only in a domain of the molecule. A discussion of a structure of such a molecule and possibilities of synthesizing a bulk high temperature superconductor based on it are discussed.
