The authors discuss studies in the Sr-Y-Cu-O and Ba-Sr-Y-Cu-O systems which revealed that Sr will substitute for Ba in (Ba,Sr)/sub 2/YCu/sub 3/O/sub 6+chi/ up to about 60%. There are no ternary compounds in the Sr-Y-Cu-O system equivalent to the three ternary phases in the Ba system. A new binary phase, Sr/sub 14/Cu/sub 24/C/sub 41/ (CuO{approx}63.158 mol%), was found which forms a solid solution with Y/sub 2/O/sub 3/ to a Sr:Y ratio of approximately 2:1. This phase can also incorporate considerable amounts of Ba and Ca and many other large ions.
