This paper reports that the YBa2Cu3-xZnxO7-δ （x = 0-0.4） samples are researched by means of x-ray diffraction, calculations of binding energy, the positron experiments and variations of oxygen content. The results of simulated calculations, positron experiments and variations of oxygen content support the existence of cluster effect. Moreover, it is concluded that the cluster effect is an important factor on suppression of high-Tc cuprate superconductivity and the Tc does not depend on the density of valence electron directly.
