Flux growth of superconducting La2CuO4 single crystals

We report here the first observation of superconductivity in lanthanum cuprate crystals grown in an ambient atmosphere. The best result achieved so far is: (1) superconducting transition temperature Tc = 32 K with ΔTc approx. 3 by ac susceptibility measurement, and (2) Tc (on set) = 36 K and Tc (zer...
