Thermodynamic analysis and technology of preparation of high-Tc superconducting system YBa2Cu3O7−x

By modeling the equilibrium state of the phase formation reaction of High-T_c superconducting phase 1:2:3 (YBa₂Cu₃O_7−x) and using the results of P-T−x correlation investigation of some authors, the variation of Gibbs free energy (ΔGm) versus temperature has been calculated. On the basis of the variation of ΔGm, the technology procedure of preparation of phase 1:2:3 with desired x has been established to meet requirement of basic investigation and application of High-T_c superconductors YBa₂Cu₃O_7−x.
