Abstract
Rare-earth substitution in REBa(2)Cu(4)O(8) [RE = Y, Dy, Sm] has led t o a series of superconducting compounds. We have attempted to study th e phase stability of these ceramics. Among these ceramics Dy substitut ed 124 is found-to be least stable. The percentage of Orthorhombicity decreases with increase in the ionic radius of the ion.
