A layered cuprate TaSr2 $$(\rm Gd)_(1+x)$$ $$(\rm Ce)_(1-x)$$ Cu 2 $$(\rm O)_y$$ for x = 0.4-0.8 has been successfully synthesized by solid state reaction. X-ray powder diffraction analysis indicates that nearly all the peaks from the samples can be indexed to a single phase of Ta-1222. The sample w...
