摘要：

We determined the effect of oxygen depletion on transport properties of La1.8Sr0.2CuO4-delta ceramic samples measuring simultaneously the change of resistivity and mass as a function of oxygen partial pressure, at 900-degrees-C. It has been found that the sample resistance is extremely sensitive to small changes of the sample oxygen content, indicating that oxygen vacancies are highly correlated. The results support a granular picture where quasiparticles in the normal state and electron pairs in the superconducting state tunnel through insulating barriers. In this picture oxygen occupies two well distinguishable regions in the sample: one associated to the intragrain superconducting material and the other to the intergrain weak links. We show that the interpretation of conventional techniques used to determine the absolute value of the oxygen content does not produce meaningful results.
