The local environment about oxygen atoms in Pr{sub x}Y{sub 1-x}Ba{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7} films obtained by laser ablation has been investigated by means of the x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy at the O K-edge. It has been found that the Pr atoms do not substitute for the Cu atoms nor form interstitial defects in the CuO{sub 2} planes and that the presence of Pr dopant does not disturb the local environment of oxygen.
