A novel hybrid of Bi-based high-Tc superconductor and molecular complex.
Molecular complex HgI2Py2 (Py=pyridine) was intercalated into the Bi-based high-Tc cuprate by intercalative complexation. The intercalation method adopted in this work is based on the new concept, where a neutral ligating agent is diffused into the preintercalated HgI2 layer leading to a charge transfer-type complex formation between the Bi2O2 double layers of Bi2Sr2CaCu2Oy.
