Research Abstract |
Synthesis and function development of mercury-including pyrochlore-type oxides were studied. We have successfully prepared a new half-metallic compound, Hg_2Ir_2O_7, with pyrochlore-type structure. We have also obtained a new superconductor, Hg_xReO_3 (x=0.4), with hexagonal bronze structure. The superconducting critical temperatures were 8.0 K and 11.1 K at ambient and 4 GPa, respectively.
