Out of plane effect on the superconductivity of Sr2-xBaxCuO3+d with Tc up to 98K

Abstract

We comment on the paper published by W.B. Gao, Q.Q. Liu, L.X. Yang, Y.Yu, F.Y. Li, C.Q. Jin and S. Uchida in Phys. Rev. B 80, 094523 (2009) and give alternate explanations for the enhanced superconductivity. The enhanced onset Tc of 98K observed upon substituting Ba for Sr is attributed to optimal oxygen ordering rather than to the increase in volume. Comparison with La2CuO(4+x) samples suggest that the effect of disorder is overestimated.
