CaLaBa superconductor is a protorype of the YBa structure

(PO4)3- doped [Y0.75Ca0.25]SrBaCu3-x(PO4)xOy compounds with 0.00 ≤ x ≤ 0.30 were synthesized using the solid state reaction technique at normal pressure and temperture conditions. The X-ray diffraction patterns show that for x= 0.0 the samples crystallize into an orthorhombic phase, and for other x values the samples presented a tetragonal structure. The Rietveld method was used to refine the lattice constants. The analysis of structure with Rietveld refinement was done using a model that contains one Cu(2) in a four coordination and not in five coordination in the other 123 tetragonal structures. All samples are superconductors as reported previously [1].

[Y1-xCax]SrBaCu2.80(PO4)0.20Oy samples with 0.10 ≤ x ≤ 0.40 were syntherized using the solid state reaction technique. X-ray diffraction patterns show that all the compounds crystallized into a 123 tetragonal structure. The analysis of the structure with Rietveld refinement were made using a model that contains one Cu(2) in four coordination and not in five coordination as in the other 123 tetragonal structures. This fact allows that Tc increase with Ca concentration. All samples are superconductors as reported in a previous paper.
