“…Unlike the full occupancy at Bi sites exhibited by the bismuth double-layer compounds BiaSr2Ca~-lCu~O2,+4, the (Bi, Cu)-1212 phase has been reported to exhibit low occupancy factors, viz. 0.44 and 0.30 for Bi and Cu sites, respectively, within the (Bi, Cu)-O monolayer [14,30]. In fact, the occupancy is as low as 0.3 and 0.2 for Bi and Cu in the monolayer cuprate (Bi, Cu)Sr2LnCeCu209 a [31].…”
