Abstract
First the different models of excitonic superconductivity in 2D and quasi 1D systems are shortly reviewed. Afterwards the possibility of superconductivity in the TCNQ molecular crystal, which has a narrow valence band and a broad conduction band is discussed. As next step the possibility of making the layers in graphite superconducting through doping will be mentioned. Subsequently a theoretical model (based first of all on the localization of the wave functions on the highly polarizable Y, La etc. atoms) for high Tc superconductivity in Ba2YCu3O7 systems will be presented. Finally, the necessary quantum mechanical calculations to prove this theory will be outlined.
