The determination of the excess oxygen content in high‐ T c superconductors is especially important. The efficiency of two new methods by which δ is determined directly has been demonstrated using the prototypic semiconductor YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6.5+δ . In one method the shift of the Fe 2⊕ /Fe 3⊕ concentration ratio is determined, whereas in the other the O 2 ‐pressure after reaction of the oxide ceramic with water is measured.
