NITRATE AND CARBONATE METHODS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF SUPERCONDUCTING PB2SR2CA0.5Y0.5CU3O8+DELTA AND PB0.5SR2.5CA0.5Y0.5CU2O7-DELTA Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • We have attempted to prepare the two new superconducting oxides, Pb2Sr2Ca0.5Yq.5Cu3O8+ and Pb0.5Sr2.5Ca0.5Cu2O7+, by heating the coprecipitated carbonates and by nitrate decomposition methods. The oxides so prepared show an onset of superconductivity ~74 and ~100 K, respectively. The minor phases occurring along with the superconducting ones were identified except for one X-ray reflection at 20 = 17.72. The dependence of phases formed upon the particular preparative conditions is also discussed. 1991, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
