摘要
We have found clear anisotropy in the ab plane with fourfold symmetry of the upper critical field for single-crystal Pb2Sr2Y0.62Ca0.38Cu3O8, which is very similar to that formerly observed in La1.86Sr0.14CuO4 [Physica B 165&166, 1449 (1990)]. This is neither attributed to the twin structure in the orthorhombic phase nor to the anisotropy of the Fermi surface but is explained as being mainly due to the anisotropy of the superconducting energy gap owing to d(x2-y2) pairing, which supports d(x2-y2) pairing in a high-T-c superconductor.
