On the role of transition metal elements as structure-stabilising agents in cuprate superconductors
We outline here several key aspects of the crystal chemistry of (high-valent) transition metal-stabilised cuprate superconductors. An examination of the chemistry of the mercurocuprate homologous series HgBa2Can-1CunO2n+2+δ leads us to propose that the inherent instability of the analogous strontium...
