| Abstract | A natural mixture of heavy rare-earth oxides extracted from xenotime mineral have been used to prepare large single crystals of the high-temperature REBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7−δ}$ superconductor, grown using the CuO–BaO self-flux method. Its mechanical properties along the ab-plane were characterized using instrumented indentation. Hardness and elastic moduli were measured by the Oliver and Pharr method, which yielded 7.4 ± 0.2 GPa and the range 135–175 GPa at small depths, respectively. Increased loads promote the nucleation of lateral cracks, which reduce hardness and measured elastic modulus, as indicated by instrumented indentation at higher loads. The indentation fracture toughness, estimated by measuring the radial crack length from cube corner indentations at various loads, was found to be 0.8 ± 0.2 MPa m$^{1/2}$. The observed slip systems of REBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7−δ}$ single crystals were [100](001) and [010](001), the same as for YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7−δ}$ single crystals. The initial stages of deformation and fracture in the indentation process were investigated. The hardness and elastic modulus are not strongly modified by the crystallographic orientation in the ab-plane. This was interpreted in terms of resolved shear stresses in the active slip systems. Evidence of cracking along the {100} and {110} planes on the ab-plane was observed. In conclusion, the mechanical properties of REBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7−δ}$ single crystals prepared from xenotime are equivalent to those of YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7−δ}$ single crystals from conventional rare-earth oxides. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
