Coexistence of superconductivity (Tc= 55 K) and antiferromagnetism TN= 230 K) in YBa2CuS06. 66 single crystal

Abstract
Neutron scattering and susceptibility measurements on a YBa2CU 3O6.55 single crystal show that the antiferromagnetic long range order coexists with superconductivity. The oxygen content has been determined by a complete neutron diffraction structure analysis. Evidence for superconductivity below Tc= 55 K has been obtained from magnetization measurements. Magnetic Bragg scattering has been observed up to TN= 230 K in both the superconducting and the normal phase
