Abstract

We report on measurements of the FAR-IR reflection spectra of the YBa2(Cu1-xZnx)3O7-y (y congruent-to 0) ceramics for different Zn concentrations (x = 0.01, 0.03 and 0.5) and temperatures. All spectra show a pronounced phonon softening of the 291 cm-1 mode for cooling of the samples from 300 to 10 K. The largest frequency shift of 12 cm-1 is observed for x = 0.01. We attribute this increase of the phonon softening to the suppression of screening caused by Zn doping.
