Abstract

Via in situ electrical property measurements (conductivity, Seebeck coefficient) over the temperature range 500-800°C and oxygen partial pressure range 10^-4-1 atm, the equilibrium transport properties and stability range of YBa₂Cu₄O₈ were determined. YBa₂Cu₄O₈ behaves like the intrinsically mixed-valent compound, magnetite (Fe₃O₄), with small variations in electrical properties with changes in oxygen partial pressure. The decomposition boundary to YBa₂Cu₃O_6+y (or YBa₂Cu_3.5O_7.5±z) and CuO occurs at log(p_O(2), atm) = -1.24 × 10⁴/T(K) + 11.01 (773 ≤ T(K) ≤ 1073).
