Crystallographic Study in the Nd2CuO4-Sr2CuO3 System

Abstract
A crystallographic study was done in the Nd2CuO4-Sr2CuO3 system. Five phases were found in this system; A: Nd2CuO4, B: Nd2SrCu2O6, C: (Nd0.45Sr0.55)3Cu2O6-y , D: (Nd1-x Sr x )2CuO4-y , and E: Sr2CuO3. Phases B and C possess Sr3Ti2O7-type structures, and phase D has the same structure as La2CuO4. No superconductivity was observed in any of the above-mentioned phases down to 4.2 K.
