Extended x-ray absorption fine structure measurements of nonsuperconducting PrBa2Cu3O6.9: Evidence against Ba site Pr substitution

Abstract: Extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements on nonsuperconducting PrBa2Cu3O6.9 are reported. Theoretical Pr LII EXAFS data, calculated for the case of Y-site and Ba-site occupation, were least-squares fit to the experimental Pr LII EXAFS. Results indicate that the Pr ions overwhelmingly occupy the Y sites. These results present a serious challenge to models which rely on Ba-site Pr substitution as an explanation for the lack of superconductivity in PrBa2Cu3O6.9.
