Abstract
The effect of synthesis conditions on the phase composition and valence state of bismuth in perovskite-like oxides of the BamBim+nOy (m = 1–9; n = 0–3, 5, 7, 9) homologous series has been studied by means of X-ray diffraction and chemical analysis. The oxides synthesized at p(O2) = 1 kPa almost have not contained Bi(V), have been characterized by average oxidation number of bismuth $$\overline {{\rm{Bi}}} $$ = 3.00–3.01 and, consequently, have been stoichiometric in oxygen content. These phases have been thermodynamically stable from the crystallization region to 20°C. Under cooling below the solidus line, the BamBim+nOy oxides have been oxidized, as shown by increase in $$\overline {{\rm{Bi}}} $$ to above 3.06. The final oxidation products at ≈700–20°С have been ВаВiO3 and Ba4Bi1+33.00O23.5 oxides. Perovskite-like BamBim+nOy oxides with average oxidation number $$\overline {{\rm{Bi}}} $$ > 3.06 have not been found. At p(O2) = 21–100 kPa, individual oxides of this series which contain significant amount of Bi(V) or exclusively Bi(V) cannot be obtained.
