A compound with the stoichiometry of Y1Ba4Cu2CO3O5.5±δ is formed in the presence of CO2 or carbonate. Analysis techniques including oxygen overpressure, wet chemical analysis, and quenching experiments establish that this material is an oxycarbonate compound. Electrical measurements indicated no superconductive properties in the 10–298 K temperature range. The ease of formation of this compound causes it to commonly appear in synthesis in this region of the phase diagram and accounts for many of the conflicting reports of properties and solid solution formation. XRD shows evidence for the existence of some solid solution in this oxycarbonate. The compound Y1Ba4Cu3O8.5±δ, formed in the absence of CO2, and Y1Ba4Cu2CO3O5.5±δ, formed in the presence of CO2, are the only barium-rich phases seen to exist.

Zirconia (ZrO2) is often added to ceramic compacts to increase their toughness. The mechanisms by which this toughness increase occurs are generally accepted to be those of transformation toughening and microcracking. The mechanism of transformation toughening is based on the presence of metastable tetragonal ZrO2 which transforms to the monoclinic allotrope when stressed by a propagating crack. The decrease in volume which accompanies this transformation effectively relieves the applied stress at the crack tip and toughens the material; microcrack toughening arises from the deflection of a propagating crack around sharply angular inclusions.These mechanisms, however, do not explain the toughness increases associated with the class of composites investigated here. Analytical electron microscopy (AEM) has been used to determine whether solid solution effects could be the cause of this increased toughness. Specimens of a mullite (3Al2O3·2SiO2) + 15 vol. % ZrO2 were prepared by the usual technique of mechanical thinning followed by ion beam milling. All observations were made in a Philips EM400 TEM/STEM microscope fitted with EDXS and EELS spectrometers.

Fast electron irradiation can induce the solid-state amorphization (SSA) of many intermetallic compounds. The occurrence of SSA stimulated by fast electron irradiation was found in the Al0.5TiZrPdCuNi high-entropy alloy (HEA). The relationship between the occurrence of SSA in intermetallic compounds under fast electron irradiation and the empirical alloy parameters for predicting the solid-solution-formation tendency in HEAs was discussed. The occurrence of SSA in intermetallic compounds was hardly predicted, only by the alloy parameters of δ or ΔHmix, which have been widely used for predicting solid-solution formation in HEAs. All intermetallic compounds with ΔHmix ≤ -35 kJ/mol and those with δ ≥ 12.5 exhibit the occurrence of SSA. This implies that the intermetallic compounds with a largely negative ΔHmix value and a largely positive δ parameter are favorable for the occurrence of SSA.
