ChemInform Abstract The stability of typical high-Tc superconducting oxides such as (La0.98Sr0.02)2CuO4-δ, YBa2Cu3O7-δ, and Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8, is examined from chemical and electrochemical point of view. All three oxides are shown to be stable in nonaqueous solution (DMF, MeCN), whereas the stability generally increases with increasing pH in aqueous solutions. In highly concentrated alkaline solutions they are rather stable. Electrochemical experiments in alkaline solutions show them to be unstable at cathodic polarization, but relatively stable at anodic polarization. O2 evolution is observed along with anodic current. Photocurrent is not observed at these electrodes. From Mott-Schottky plots it is concluded that these superconductors are highly doped p-type semiconductors at 25 rc C. Moreover, they are active for the (Fe(CN)6)3-/4-redox couple.
