Networks of superconducting nano-puddles in 1/8 doped YBa2Cu3O6.5 + y controlled by thermal manipulation

While it is known that the nature and the arrangement of defects in complex oxides have an impact on the material functionalities, little is known about control of superconductivity by oxygen interstitial organization in cuprates. Here we report direct compelling evidence for the control of T _c by...
