Abstract

In the synthesis of the superconducting compound Ba₂YCu₃O_7‐x from a stoichiometric mixture containing BaCO₃, Y₂O₃, and CuO In air, a low‐melting liquid phase is formed at about 890°C. The liquid phase was identified as a ternary eutectic located within the compatibility triangle Ba₂YCu₃O_7‐x–BaCuO₂–CuO. The implication of this finding for the processing of Ba₂YCu₃O_7‐x is discussed. Copyright © 1988, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved.
