Abstract

A comparative study of physical and chemical methods for the analysis of the number and identity of holes in electrochemically oxidized La 2CuO 4+δ is reported. A combination of TGA and iodometric chemical analyses shows the existence of two species with different oxidation potentials. Susceptibility and resistivity measurements show the existence of at least two segregated superconducting phases, while Seebeck measurements shows a large change in the number of carriers for a constant value of δ; this atypical behavior is consistent though with the chemical data and implies the existence of a phase equilibrium within the oxide.
