Phases and their relations in the BiO1.5-SrO(SrCO3)-CuO system have been studied mainly by XRD. The crystal structure of the newly found phase has been examined by XRD, TEM and ED. Phase equilibrium was established at 720°C in air. Monophasic products of the newly found phase were obtained at 720°C for a composition of Bi:Sr:Cu=0.25:0.55:0.20. The newly found phase has a tetragonal structure with lattice parameters of a=5.513Å and c=39.93Å.
