Optical determination of the oxygen content of YBa2Cu3O6+x thin films by IR reflectance and transmittance measurements

2001

Abstract Recent studies of the optical properties of YBa2Cu3O6+x (YBCO) single crystals by several authors have shown that the optical conductivity in the infrared spectral region is a sensitive function of the oxygen content of the samples. Infrared spectroscopy thus offers a possibility for oxygen concentration analysis and is an alternative to other methods such as (i) the X-ray determination of the length of the c-axis and (ii) spectroscopic ellipsometry at an electronic transition band centered around 4.1 eV whose strength decreases with increasing oxygen content. We explore the applicability of the IR optical method for the case of YBCO thin films of about 300 nm thickness which are e…

Orthogneisses in the Spessart Crystalline Complex, north-west Bavaria: Silurian granitoid magmatism at an active continental margin

1995

The Spessart Crystalline Complex, north-west Bavaria contains two orthogneiss units of granitic to granodioritic composition, known as the Rotgneiss and Haibach gneiss, respectively, which are structurally conformable with associated metasediments. The igneous origin of the Rotgneiss is apparent from field and textural evidence, whereas strong deformation and recrystallization in the Haibach gneiss has obscured most primary textures. New geochemical data as well as zircon morphology prove the Haibach gneiss to be derived from a granitoid precursor, which was chemically similar to the Rotgneiss protolith, thus suggesting a genetic link between those two rock units. Both gneiss types have che…
