In this paper, we report high-temperature X-ray diffraction (HTXRD) and dil
atometric studies on LaBa2Cu2CoO7+delta. Bulk and volume thermal expansion
studies, along with a study of its phase transition, were carried out. The
linear and volume thermal expansion coefficients were found to be 11.7 X 10
(-6) K-1 and 42.3 X 10(-6) K-1, respectively. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd
