ABSTRACTThe effect of Am doping on the physical properties of three superconducting systems (RBa2Cu3O7, Pb2Sr2R1−xCaxCu3O8 and R2−xMxCuO4) have been studied using x-ray diffraction, x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and magnetic susceptibility experiments. Am is incorporated into all three systems as the tetravalent ion and superconductivity is not observed in any of the resultant compounds. The absence of superconductivity in Pb2Sr2Am0.5Ca0.5Cu3O8 is attributed to the transfer of charge from Am to the Cu-O planes. Systems that cannot incorporate a tetravalent ion, notably AmBa2Cu3O7 and Am2CuO4, do not form. Although Pr1.85Am0.15CuO4 forms with similar structure to Pr1.85Ce0.15CuO4, and Am like Ce is tetravalent, it is not superconducting. We argue that the absence of superconductivity in the Am doped Pr compound it is due to the hybridization of radially-extended f orbitals on the magnetic Am4+ ion with the Cu-O band states.

AbstractThe choice of surrogate for plutonium oxide for use during the initial stages of research into the immobilization of intermediate level pyrochemical wastes containing plutonium andamericium oxides in a calcium phosphate host has been investigated by powder X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Two non-radioactive surrogates, hafnium oxide and cerium oxide, together with radioactive thorium oxide were compared. Similarities in behaviour were observed for all three surrogates when calcined at the lowest temperature, 750°C but differences became more pronounced as the calcination temperature was increased to 950°C. Although some reaction occurred between all the surrogates and the host to form a substituted whitlockite phase, increasing the temperature led to a significant increase in the cerium reaction and the formation of an additional phase, monazite. Additionally it was observed that the cerium became increasingly trivalent at higher temperatures.
