The 8-8-20 oxygen deficient perovskite occurs in the La-Sr-Cu-O chemical system near composition La{sub 6.4}Sr{sub 1.6}Cu{sub 8}O{sub 20}. Here, the authors show that this structure can be stabilized in the La-Ca-Cu-Ni-O system based on the composition La{sub 6.4}Ca{sub 1.6}Cu{sub 6}Ni{sub 2}O{sub 20}. In the new system, a wider variation of hole concentration is possible. Transport properties of the series reveal an insulator to metal transition as a function of increasing Ca(hole) concentration. Phase stability studies suggest that Ni preferentially substitutes for octahedrally coordinated copper.
