Popis: | We have studied the phase transition of the oxygen sublattice in the YBa2Cu3O7−x system by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Guinier Camera, and high temperature x-ray diffraction (ht-xrd) techniques. The transition was examined under different thermodynamic constraints (constant oxygen partial pressure and constant oxygen concentration) and for a range of oxygen partial pressures. The variation of the endothermic peak temperature with DSC scanning rate was used to deduce an activation energy for the transition. The average activation energy for the process is between 38.7–75.0 kcal/mole(l:2:3) [mole], depending on the thermodynamic constraint imposed on the system.Pressure versus concentration isotherms (P(C)) were used to determine the chemical potential of the oxygen in this system. |
