Change of superconducting transition temperature caused by adsorption of noble gases

Surface adsorption of Ne or Xe reduced the superconducting transition temperature of metal films. Shifts, ΔTcTc, for T1 and Sn were larger by a factor of 10 or more than those observed for Pb, Bi and Ga. Small accompanying increases in normal state conductivity were found for some of the metals and...

Summary:Surface adsorption of Ne or Xe reduced the superconducting transition temperature of metal films. Shifts, ΔTcTc, for T1 and Sn were larger by a factor of 10 or more than those observed for Pb, Bi and Ga. Small accompanying increases in normal state conductivity were found for some of the metals and decreases for others.
