ABSTRACT:
A method of producing a microcrystalline RBa.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.y structure where R denotes a lanthanide chosen from Y, La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb and Lu and where y has a value between 6.9 and 7 starts with a powder of composition [x(123) ; (1-x) (7BaO--18CuO] where (123) denotes the 123 phase of RBaB.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.y and where the value of x is between 0.01 and 1. The powder is compressed and sintered at a temperature below 920.degree. C. (the BaCuO.sub.2 and CuO binary eutectic temperature) to form a sample. The sample is placed on an oxide of the lanthanide R. The sample and its support undergo heat treatment enabling chemical reaction between the liquid part of the sample and its support whereby substantially all of the liquid part is consumed and highly regular 123 monocrystals are obtained. Cooling is applied. At least one annealing is carried out in pure oxygen at a temperature between 350.degree. C. and 500.degree. C. to obtain the orthorhombic form characteristic of RBa.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.y.
