Takada
has identified that superconductivity is brought about by the ferroelectric
phonon in the
strontium titanates
(SrTiO3)
[1] and the alkali-ion
active phonon mode in the c-direction producing
local electric fields in the alkali-metal
intercalated graphite (AC8)
[2].
In relation to the alkali-metal-doped fullerides (A3C60), Takada and Hotta have proposed a concept of occurrence of superconductivity in the polaron-liquid phase realized by the competition between the attractive interaction due to the exchange of surface phonons of a buckey ball and the Coulomb repulsion [3,4]. We have shown that all the experimental results on superonductivity in the fullerides can be explained in a unified fashion from this viewpoint [5,6]. Takada has also considered a possibility of bipolaronic superconductivity with an intention to resolve curious behaviors observed in CuCl and CdS [7]. |
