ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an improved process for preparing a superconducting composition having the formula MBa.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.x wherein M is selected from the group consisiting of Y, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb and Lu; x is from about 6.5 to about 7.0; said composition having a superconducting transition temperature of about 90 K.; said process consisiting essentially of mixing ba(NO.sub.3).sub.2, M.sub.2 O.sub.3 and CuO in an atomic ratio of M:Ba:Cu of about 1:2:3 to form a precursor powder and heating the precursor powder in an oxygen-containing atmoshpere at a temperature from about 875.degree. C. to about 950.degree. C. for a time sufficient to form MBa.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.y, where y is from about 6.0 to about 6.4; and maintaining the Mba.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.y in an oxygen-containing atmosphere while cooling for a time sufficient to obtain the desired product.
