NMR Study of the 89Y Resonance in fluorinated YBa2Cu3Ox

The line shape and Knight shift of the 89Y NMR resonance was obtained for fully oxygenated (x = 7), oxygen deficient (x = 6.7) and nonsuperconducting oxygen deficient (x = 6) fluorine-doped YBCO (YBa2Cu3OxFy). The results show that while flourine can increase the onset superconducting transition temperature Tc in oxygen deficient material, the Knight shift is practically independent of the flourine concentration. The consequences of this result as far as Tc is concerned are discussed.
