ChemInform Abstract
The title compound has been studied by TEM and XRD. This material has an easy cleavage plane parallel to (001). YBa2Cu3O7-x (x ≪ 1) crystals can be twinned (mechanical twins, ferroelastic material), but they are generally twinned only to a small degree. Another oxide has been observed in epitaxial growth on YBa2Cu3O7-x. A superlattice perpendicular to the common c axis has been observed probably due to a regular stacking of both oxides.
