Abstract

Yb substituted Tl-1212 type phase with nominal starting composition Tl(Sr1.5Yb0.5)CayCu2O7-δ (y = 1.0, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4) have been prepared and characterized. The X-ray diffraction patterns indicate that the variation of nanosized calcium oxide for y = 1.0 to 1.4 showed a dominant 1212 phase and the 1201 as the minor phase. This system showed a metallic normal state behavior for all samples. Scanning electron micrographs of fractured internal sections of all the samples showed porous microstructure with grains of similar shapes and sizes.
