THERMODYNAMIC STUDY ON THE Sm-Ba-Cu-O SYSTEM

The assembly for EMF measurement with CaF₂ single crystal or MgO partially stabilized zirconia as solid state electrolyte has been constructed. From the EMF data, the standard Gibbs energies, standard enthalpies of formation and standard entropies of sir complex oxides in the Sm-Ba-Cu-O system were calculated. The decomposition pressures of these complex oxides were derived.
