Abstract
The stabilization of the quadruple perovskite structure Ln(2)Ba(2)Cu(2 )Ti(2)O(1)1 as a function of the constituent lanthanides has been inve stigated. Powder X-ray data show that the mixed A-site compositions Ln 'Ln '' Ba2Cu2Ti2O11 (Ln'Ln '' = LaY, LaHo, LaEr, and NdDy) concertedly order to form distinct CuO22- and TiO2 double layers. In addition the A cations (Ln, Ln '', and Ba) order on three distinct sites, with the smaller lanthanide (Ln '') occupying the 8-coordinate site between co ntracted copper-oxygen planes.
