Abstract
It is shown that the superconducting Tc of metallic layered compounds increases as the Charge Density Wave (CDW) is suppressed. Specifically, the magnitude of the change in magnetic susceptibility caused by the CDW is inversely related to Tc. The CDW can be suppressed by intercalation or substitution.Keywords
