The possibility of increasingTc in oxide high-Tc superconductor films: Interaction with elastic fields of defects

The influence onT _c of dilatation centers (DC) as elastic defects near the surface or in thin films of oxide high-T_c superconductors is considered. The distribution function ofT _c in this case was obtained. This is the Lorentzian with center shifted to largerT _c values. The half width of theT _c distribution n (n is the concentration of DC) is larger than its center shift and corresponds to the increase ofT _c fluctuations near the surface. As a result, a continuum percolation behavior with increasing critical temperature percolation levelT ^(c) near the surface appears. The inequalityn>T ^(c)>T _c ^initial is fulfilled. ForT>T ^(c) the quasi-2D Josephson media takes place where a finite superconductive domain withT _c ^local >T ^(c) exists. The influence of DC considerably increases for strong DC such as off-center impurity ions.
