The compound Ba

3O
7-y with various 7-y was annealed in sealed gold and silica capules at 350-570°C and 0.1 MPa. Linear depression of the superconducting transition temperature(T
c) occurred with a decreasing 7-y, and T
c was zero at 7-y= 6.40 -6.45. Tetragonal phase with 6.4>7-y>6.34 was unstable below 570°C. Superstructure due to regular arrangement of oxygen vacancies was observed at 7-y=6.48. The specimen was reactive with moisture, and became a non-superconductor, although the structure remained unchanged. Coexistence of tetragonal and orthorhombic phases was observed in a specimen with 7-y=- 6.47.

For M = Fe, Co and Ga, phase transitions from the orthorhombic to tetragonal structure were found with increasing x in YBCMO. Across the structural transition, however, Tc decreases gradually with x and no anomalies were found. This suggests that the superconductivity occurs essentially in the 2-dimensional phane for both LBCMO and YBCMO.

High Tc superconductor films were sputter-grown in several crystalline forms, e.g. the polycrystal, polycrystal with c-axis preferential orientation, and (110) epitaxial crystal. The film had the critical temperature as high as 87 K. The micro-fabrication technique on the basis of the wet etching by the phosphoric acid and FELLIOX-115 was proposed. The thin line (2-4 μm wide) thus made exhibited no significant degradation in its superconductivity. The grain-boundary in the patterned polycrystalline film served as a good Josephson junction operative even at 81 K. The constricted Josephson junction array device was fabricated for the use as a sensitive image sensor. A possible application of this kind of material to the luminescence device is also demonstrated.

A simple model considering a repulsion energy between oxygen atoms in the c plane was proposed, explaining trends in transition temperature and oxygen content.
Thick film and green sheet powder processing techniques have been studied, with application to electronic components and devices. A paste of calcined powder was made and screen-printed on various substrates. The Tcend was found to be 87K for yttria-stabilized-zirconia substrate.

High Tc superconducting thin films were prepared by rf magnetron sputtering. The composition of the prepared films strongly depended on the oxygen partial pressure of sputtering gas. The crystal structure of the films was determined by the substrate temperature during sputtering. The crystal growth was affected by the substrate crystal materials. Thin film of Ga-Ba-Cu-O was grown at 600°C by sputtering without suffering the postannealing. That offset temperature was 80°C with the onset resistivity of 1.6 × 10

The oxalate coprecipitation method was applied to the preparation of high-Tc superconducting oxide powder. The process of forming the oxide through the pyrolysis and subsequent heat treatment was studied in connection with powder characterization. The oxalate copreciptate, being fine powder with -0.3μm in size, consisted of Y-Ba complex and Cu oxalates. The pyrolysis proceeded mostly by three steps in the order of dehydration, decomposition of Cu oxalate and that of Y-Ba oxalate, resulting in CuO and BaC0
3 phases at 500°C for 2h without changing particle shape. Heat treatment avobe 850°C was favorable to obtain the oxide powder with single phase. Its particles were less than 2μm in size when treated below 925°C and drastically grew to more than 10μm above 950°C with plate-like shape.

Due to the EPMA study on the samples treated under ambient conditions, three regions were confirmed in the grains: a) the inner core region without any interaction with water, b) the intermediate region of low Ba content surrounding the core, and c) the surface layer containing Y and Cu in the molar ratio Y/Cu=1/3 and very little amount of Ba. On these basis, it is concluded that the decomposition of the YBC ceramics is due to the diffuse-out of Ba cations to water and that the decomposition is not accompanied by the formation of Y

The effect of the cold isostatic pressing in forming process on superconductivity is studied in Y-Ba-Cu-O ceramics. Ba(NO
3)
2, Y
2O
3 and CuO are mixed to the ratio of Y:Ba:Cu=1:2:3, calcined at 1173 K, mixed with and without the various amount of CuO as a binding additive, formed with cold isostatic press at various pressure and sintered at 1173 K. The critical temperature and the zero field critical current density at 77 K are measured. The values of Tc are, similar in all kinds of the specimens but the Jc is sensitive to the amount of a binding additive and the cold isostatic forming pressure.
