Abstract

YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x was synthesized by mixed-oxide reaction of Y₂O₃, BaCO₃, and CuO. The starting constituents were mixed, followed by multiple steps of calcination with interposed grinding. Heating rapidly to 900°C was shown to minimize formation of liquid during calcination while still producing a phase-pure powder. Slow heating to 900°C or fast heating to 950°C resulted in formation of a liquid phase deleterious to YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x synthesis.
