For this reason, the cation substitution can be conducted. One of the high Tc superconductors Gd1Ba2Cu3O7−δ phase with Sr substitution has been synthesized, i.e. Gd1(Ba2−xSrx)Cu3O7−δ compound. The sample was synthesized by using a solid-state reaction method with a wet mixing, sintered for 12 hours at temperature 900°C. The synthesis results are characterized by using XRD. The results of Match-3 software analysis showed high (higher 85%) Gd1Ba2Cu3O7−δ phase was formed. The Sr substitution causes changes to the structure, i.e. the lattice parameters a, b and c, where the orthorhombicity tends to decrease with increasing Sr content. Refinement results show that based on the oxygen occupancy, the total oxygen content tends to increase.展开更多
