Abstract
Within a 2D model of Josephson junction arrays (created by a 2D network of twin boundary dislocations with strain fields acting as an insulating barrier between hole-rich domains in underdoped crystals), a few novel effects expected to occur in intrinsically granular material are predicted, including (i) Josephson chemomagnetism (chemically induced magnetic moment in zero applied magnetic field) and its influence on a low-field magnetization (chemically induced paramagnetic Meissner effect) and (ii) the magnetoconcentration effect (creation of oxygen vacancies in applied magnetic field) and its influence on a high-field magnetization (the chemically induced analogue of the “fishtail” anomaly). The conditions under which these effects can be experimentally measured in nonstoichiometric high-T c superconductors are discussed.
