In this paper, we report successful extension of the solid-solubility limit of copper at the transition element site in the (B a, L a) Y (C u, F e) 2 O 5+ δ phase of the double-perovskite “0112” structure. Upon the high-pressure heat treatment at 5 GPa and 1200 C of the ambient-pressure synthesized samples that contained impurity phases, essentially single-phase samples were obtained for x up to 0.2 in the (Ba 1− 2 x La 2 x) Y (Cu 0. 5+ x Fe 0.5− x) 2 O 5+ δ system. TEM observations and TEM energy dispersive x-ray analyses for the high-pressure synthesized (B a 0.6 La 0.4) Y (C u 0.7 Fe 0.3) 2 O 5+ δ material showed that the ratio of copper to iron varies in the sample with an average value of C u: F e= 0.70: 0.30, as measured for nine grains. It could thus be concluded that a 0112 phase in which the amount of copper is larger than that of iron in the oxygen pyramid was realized. In order to obtain the copper-rich 0112 phase, simultaneous substitution of the divalent barium site by trivalent lanthanum was found necessary. From 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy data, the relative intensities of five-and six-coordinated iron atoms were evaluated and the amount of excess oxygen in the structure could be estimated at δ≈ 0.23. Furthermore, both Mössbauer and magnetic-susceptibility measurements of the x= 0.2 sample showed that the Néel temperature of the copper-rich material is lower than the corresponding transition temperature observed for the material with the stoichiometric x= 0 composition. Finally, conditions for the successful extension of the copper solubility are discussed and related to the tolerance factor of the 0112 structure.
