Break-junction tunneling spectra have been measured on MgB2 and Li-0.5(THF)(y) HfNCl to investigate the nature,of the superconducting gap. The observed largest gap values at 4 K are 2Delta = 18-20 and 11-12 meV for MgB2 (T-c = 39 K) and Li-0.5(THF)(y)HfNCl (26 K), respectively. These values lead to the similar ratio 2Delta/k(B)T(c) = 5-6, which is extremely large in comparison with that of the conventional strong-coupling superconductors. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
