✦ Synopsis
The polythermal section at a constant composition of 20 mol% BaCl 2 of the quasi-ternary system BaCl 2 -BaO-CuO x was investigated at p(O 2 ) ؍ 0.21 bar by means of DTA/TG and soaking experiments. Our results show the nature of incongruent decomposition reactions of the quaternary phases Ba 3 Cu 2 O 4 Cl 2 and Ba 2 Cu 3 O 4 Cl 2 at T ؍ 925°°C (؎5°°) and T ؍ 975°°C (؎5°°), respectively. Single crystals of both compounds were grown. Furthermore, field-dependent magnetic properties of Ba 3 Cu 2 O 4 Cl 2 and Ba 2 Cu 3 O 4 Cl 2 are measured at various temperatures. Both compounds contain two crystallographically different types of magnetic Cu atoms. Ba 3 Cu 2 O 4 Cl 2 exhibits antiferromagnetic order with a Nee´l temperature T N of about 20 K. A spin-flop transition is observed below T N at a field of 2.6 T. Ba 2 Cu 3 O 4 Cl 2 shows two antiferromagnetic transition temperatures at T NI + 337 K and T NII +33 K. Below T NI some spontaneous magnetization is observed.
