    Insertion of Li into the vacant sites (channels) of certain NZP phases (ATi2P3O12, A = Li, Na, and NbTiP 3O12) using BunLi at room temperature has been established; the preparation and preliminary structural and i.r. data of the phases are described.

    Metal atom incorporation studies on the phases with NZP structure: â–¡NbTiP3O12

    A wide variety of electropositive elements of the periodic table can be inserted into the vacant sites in the host framework structure of hexagonal NbTiP3O12 (an analog of nasicon) to give rise to isostructural phases. Synthesis, characterization, and preliminary data on the structure, IR spectra, and electrical resistivity are presented. Possible areas for further exploration are delineated. © 1987 Academic Press, Inc. All rights reserved.

    Superconductivity behaviour in screen-printed YBa2Cu3O7 films

    We have fabricated films of the high Tc superconducting oxide YBa2Cu3O7 by screen printing on alumina, calcia-stabilized zirconia, yttria-stabilized zirconia, SrTiO3 and La2CuO4 substrates. Alumina was found to be a suitable substrate for screen printing. La2CuO4 and SrTiO3 substrates can be used with shorter annealing times. Superconducting transition temperatures in the vicinity of 85 K have been established in some of the films. © 1980.

    The effect of chemical substitution on the high-Tc (91 K) superconducting oxide YBa2Cu3O7, with the distorted perovskite structure, has been studied. Subtle changes in Tc occur when Y is partly replaced by Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Bi and In. The possibility of coexistence of magnetic order and superconductivity or reentrant behavior in these high-Tc compounds will be described and discussed. © 1987.
