Abstract

Solid state reactions at 925°C between the high-T c ceramic superconductor YBa2Cu3O7−δ and La2O3 and SrCO3, respectively, mixed in various molar ratiosr=MeOn/YBa2Cu3O7−δ, were studied using X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The reaction between YBa2Cu3O7−δ and La2O3 yielded (La1−xBax)2CuO4−δ, withx≈0.075−0.10. La2−xBa1+xCu2O6−δ, withx≈0.2−0.25 and La-doped (Y1−xLax)2BaCuO5, withx≈0.10−0.15. Forr=3.0, Y-doped La2BaCuO5 resulted also. The reaction between YBa2Cu3O7−δ and SrCO3 yielded (Sr1−zBaz)2CuO3, withz≈0.1, Y2(Ba1−zSrz)CuO5, withz=0.1−0.15, and a nonsuperconducting compound with an approximate composition of Y(Ba0.5Sr0.5)5Cu3.5O10±δ. At values ofr≤2.0, unsubstituted YBa2Cu3O7−delta was found in the reaction products.

Zusammenfassung

Mittels Debye-Scherrer-Aufnahmen und Scanning-Elektronenmikroskopie wurden bei 925°C die Feststoffreaktionen zwischen dem Hoch-T c-Keramiksupraleiter YBa2Cu3O7−δ und La2O3 und SrCO3 in Gemischen mit einem verschiedenen Molverhältnisr=MeOn/YBa2Cu3O7−x untersucht. Die Reaktion zwischen YBa2Cu3O7−δ und La2O3 ergibt (La1−xBax)2CuO4−δ mitx≈0.075−0.10, La2−xBa1+xCu2O6−δ mitx=0.2−0.25 und La-versetzte (Y1−xLax)2BaCuO5 mitx=0.10–0.15. Fürr=3.0 entsteht außerdem noch Y-versetztes La2BaCuO5. Die Reaktion zwischen YBa2Cu3O7−δ und SrCO3 liefert (Sr1−zBaz)2CuO3 mitz≈0.1, Y2(Ba1−zSrz)CuO5 mitz=0.1−0.15 sowie eine nicht supraleitende Verbindung mit einer etwaigen Zusammensetzung von Y(Ba0.5Sr0.5)5Cu3.5O10±δ. Bei Werten vonr≤2.0 wurde unter den Reaktionsprodukten auch nicht umgesetztes YBa2Cu3O7−δ gefunden.
