Transmission electron microscope studies on minor phases and imperfections in YBa/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub x/ compounds

Description

The authors studied grain boundaries in calcined and sintered YBa/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub x/ by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and found complex Ba-Cu oxides. The complex oxide was polycrystalline and composed of grains smaller than 100 nm in diameter and it often included minor phases rich in Y. Some stoichiometric oxides such as BaCuO/sub 2/, CuO and BaO were also observed along grain boundaries
