In this work the electrochemical intercalation of oxygen in La 2 CuO 4 phases has been studied. Oxygen intercalation has been performed at different anodic potentials for fixed time in alkaline solution (1 M NaOH) at room temperature. The electrochemistry of the phenomena taking place at the oxide-s

✦ Synopsis
The electrochemical intercalation of oxygen in La,CuO, single crystals was studied using electron paramagnetic resonance and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Chronoamperometric experiments showed that, in the intercalation process, the 0 2-diffusion in single crystals is extremely slow (D z lo-r6 cmrs-'). This diffusion coefficient depends strongly on temperature and the enthalpy diffusion was found to be ca. 750 kJ deg-' mol-i. Crystals under electro-oxidation for one to two weeks still show the presence of the antiferromagnetic and a superconducting phases. This was supported by the simultaneous observation of line splitting in the EPR spectra and superconducting diamagnetic signal.
