High-temperature superconductors YBa[Cu.sub.2][O.sub.5] and [Tl.sub.1.5]Ba[Ca.sub.2][Cu.sub.2.5][O.sub.8] with a decreased content of heavy metals

New high-temperature superconductors YBa[Cu.sub.2][O.sub.5] and [Tl.sub.1.5]Ba[Ca.sub.2][Cu.sub.2.5][O.sub.8] have been synthesized. They can be considered as a result of the removal of barium cuprate BaCu[O.sub.2] from Y[Ba.sub.2][Cu.sub.3][O.sub.7] and barium cuprate--tallate Ba[Cu.sub.0.5][Tl.sub...

Description
Summary:New high-temperature superconductors YBa[Cu.sub.2][O.sub.5] and [Tl.sub.1.5]Ba[Ca.sub.2][Cu.sub.2.5][O.sub.8] have been synthesized. They can be considered as a result of the removal of barium cuprate BaCu[O.sub.2] from Y[Ba.sub.2][Cu.sub.3][O.sub.7] and barium cuprate--tallate Ba[Cu.sub.0.5][Tl.sub.0.5][O.sub.2] from [Tl.sub.2][Ba.sub.2][Ca.sub.2][Cu.sub.3][O.sub.10]. The synthesized compounds contain a smaller amount of toxic Ba and Tl. Investigation of electrical conductivity has demonstrated that the values of [T.sub.c] of synthesized materials are close to [T.sub.c] of starting materials. The Meissner effect observed for these materials has confirmed their belonging to high-temperature superconductors.
