Summary

AN ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO SUMMARIZE A LARGE BODY OF DATA DEALING WITH MEASUREMENTS OF THE ENERGY GAP IN SUPERCONDUCTING OXIDES LIKE LSCO(-) AND YBCO(-), AND RELATED COMPOUNDS. A PLOT OF AVAILABLE DATA OF THE ENERGY GAP AS A FUNCTION OF THE SUPERCONDUCTING TRANSITION TEMPERATURE REVEALED A LARGE < DISPERSION > OF SOME DATA. NEVERTHELESS, THE SIZE OF THE ENERGY GAP IN THESE EXOTIC MATERIALS IS WITHIN THE WEAK COUPLING BCS PREDICTION, IN VIEW OF SOME CONTROVERSIAL ISSUES THAT COULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DISPERSION, SUCH AS THE GAP ANISOTROPY AS WELL AS IDENTIFICATION OF THE ENERGY GAP.
