We report the growth of single crystals of the new high T sub c cuprate superconductors from partially melting rare earth oxide-barium oxide-copper oxide mixtures.

Understanding the doping mechanisms in the simplest superconducting copper oxide-the infinite-layer compound ACuO(2) (where A is an alkaline earth metal)Dis an excellent way of investigating the pa

Samples in the system Ba sub (2-x) La sub (1-x) Cu sub 3 O sub (7-delta) (0.0 = x = 0.5; 0 delta 0.25) have been prepared and characterized by x-ray powder diffraction, magnetic susceptibility,

Progress in the field of superconductivity is often linked to the discovery of new classes of materials, with the layered copper oxides(1) being a particularly impressive example.

Recent advances in the synthesis of superconducting cuprates, such as Ba sub 2 YCu sub 3 O sub 7, have profound scientific and technological implications which have only begun to be explored.

Oxyfluorides of the type Ba sub 2 RCu sub 3 O sub (x) F sub (y) are prepared by the reaction of Ba sub 2 RCu sub 3 O sub (7-delta) (0=delta=1) with fluorine gas at temperatures between 200-500C.

Superconducting cuprate perovskites isostructural with Ba sub 2 YCu sub 3 O sub 7 incorporating a variety of rare earth ions are reported.

The observation of superconductivity in doped C-60 has attracted much attention(1-3), as these materials represent an entirely new class of superconductors.

The Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconductors have been doped with various noble metals and their superconducting properties have been investigated.
