Abstract :
Pure Gd1−xNaxCu2O4 and Nd1−yNayCu2O4 crystals were synthesized by using the anodic electrocrystallization technique from molten KOH/NaOH/KNO3 at 280–300°C. The resulting crystals were chemically and physically characterized by using SEM, EDX, XRD, XPS and magnetic susceptibility measurements.
