Composite transition-metal atom superconductivity in a generalized Nb3Ge system

Abstract
Data is presented for the variation in superconducting transition temperatures in a generalized Nb3Ge system in which a fraction of Nb atoms have been replaced by the similar 4‐d transition‐metal atom Mo. It is argued that for a certain composition range, the effective transition‐metal atom can be viewed as a composite of Nb and Mo electronic states averaged along the chains in the A15 structure.
