Abstract

A new superconducting compound with composition LaBaCaCu3O6.85 has been prepared. It crystallizes in a pseudo-tetragonal structure related to YBa2Cu3O7. The onset superconducting temperature is 78 K. Electron diffraction clearly shows the presence of a superstructure in this material. Conductivity and superconductivity data are presented and possible structures of the unit cell are discussed.
