Title
Correlation Between Enhanced 
, Orthorhombicity and the Volume of the Unit Cell in Argon Preheated SrBaCu<sub>3</sub>O<sub>6+z</sub>. Each sample was subject to two types of heat treatment: oxygen annealing [O] and argon annealing followed by oxygen annealing [AO]. For each x, the [AO] treatment increases the orthorhombicity epsiv = (<i>b</i> -<i>a</i>) / (<i>b</i> + <i>a</i>) (for 0 les <i>x</i> les 1), <i>T</i> <sub>c</sub> (for <i>x</i> ges 0.4) and the distance <i>d</i> [<i>Cu</i>(1) - (<i>Sr</i> / <i>Ba</i>)] (decrease <i>T</i> <sub>c</sub> ) for <i>x</i> < 0.5 and decrease it (increase <i>T</i> <sub>c</sub> ) for <i>x</i> > 0.5 . When x increase from 0 to 1, epsiv decreases with <i>T</i> <sub>c</sub>[<i>O</i>]. However, <i>T</i> <sub>c</sub>[<i>AO</i>] decreases with epsiv until x = 0.2 and after it increases by 6 K to 85 K for x = 1 [AO]. A remarkable correlations were observed between <i>Tc</i>(<i>x</i>) and the volume of the unit cell <i>V</i> (<i>x</i>) ; and between delta<i>T</i> <sub>c</sub>(<i>x</i>) = <i>T</i> <sub>c</sub>[<i>AO</i>] - <i>T</i> <sub>c</sub>[<i>O</i>] and deltaepsiv(<i>x</i>). A combination of several factors such as decrease in <i>d</i> [<i>Cu</i>(1) - (<i>Sr</i> / <i>Ba</i>)]; increase in cationic and chain oxygen ordering; the number <i>p</i> <sub>sh</sub>(<i>x</i>) of holes by Cu(2) - O<sub>2</sub> superconducting plans and in-phase purity for the [AO] samples may account for the observed data.</div></div>
