Research on high-T{sub c} superconductors is directed at every aspect of the development, application, and understanding of these materials. The present paper presents the current state of a few of the projects in the high-T{sub c} materials research program at Argonne National Laboratory. The subjects covered are fabrication, mechanical properties, heat capacity measurements, oxygen diffusion in La{sub 2-x}Sr{sub x}CuO{sub 4}, and Sr and Ca substitution into YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7-{delta}}.
