Abstract
The shear elastic properties of YBa2Cu3O7 –x high-temperature superconducting (HTSC) ceramics are studied near the superconducting transition at a temperature of 91.3 K and room temperature of 293 K. For the first time, a local increase in shear nonlinear acoustic parameter N in the region of the phase transition temperature was detected. Experimental studies of the linear and nonlinear elastic properties of YBa2Cu3O7 –x HTSC ceramics in the region of the superconducting transition showed that the electronic phase transition has a significant effect on its elastic properties. Based on experimental measurements, linear and nonlinear elastic parameters are determined both at room temperature and in the region of the phase transition.
