We report the normal-state and superconducting properties of the silver-oxide clathrate Ag 6 O 8 AgNO 3 . Electrical resistivity, specific heat, and DC and AC susceptibility measurements as functions of magnetic field and temperature show phase transitions near 90 and 185 K. We find that Ag 6 O 8 AgNO 3 is a bulk superconductor with the superconducting transition temperature T c =1.04 K. We observe a clear kink structure in the field dependence of the real part of AC susceptibility, suggesting a change in vortex state. Furthermore, we present the H – T phase diagram of this compound and estimate the upper critical field H c2 (0) to be about 770 Oe. We also discuss the superconducting properties in a Ginzburg–Landau framework.
