Since the discovery of superconductivity in Sr2CuO2F2+δ there has been an increased interest in ternary oxide-fluorides. Sr2CuO2F2+δ is prepared via low temperature (T = 220 °C) reaction routes. Low temperature fluorination induces an interesting str... Read More about Synthesis and low temperature fluorination of the alkaline-earth palladates Ba2-xSrxPdO3 (x = 0-2).

Journal Article
