Abstract

Ceramic (Sr1−xCax)2CuO3 samples have been prepared with x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.55, 0.75, and 1.00 in order to study the change in lattice constants with the ratio of Sr/Ca. This phase is frequently an impurity phase in the fabrication of Bi–Sr–Ca–Cu–O superconductors, and it is important to be able to connect the lattice constants with stoichiometry. The behavior of the lattice constants closely follows Vegard's law.
