Abstract

The superconducting hole condensate of YBa 2-Cu 3O 7 resides in its BaO layers, and involves s-wave paired holes. This picture differs from the currently widespread opinion that the superconductivity at the surface and in the bulk is d-like, and resides in the CuO 2 planes: it is the main reason why high-temperature superconductivity has been unsolved. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010.
