Abstract

New Pb-based layered cuprates with the 1222 structure have been synthesized in the (Pb0.5B0.5)Sr2 (RE2−xy Ce x Sr y )Cu2O z (RE = Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Y) systems. The almost-single-phase samples in the systems can be obtained for a nominal composition of x=0.7 and y=0.1. The crystal structure of the samples has a tetragonal symmetry, the lattice parameters of a and c are increasing with increasing the ionic radius of RE element. Despite treatment under high O2 pressure of 100 atm, the samples are semiconductors with the transport process characteristic of three-dimensional variable range hopping conduction.
