2-Ethylhexanoate compounds which contained Y, Er, Yb, Ba, and Cu were prepared separately. These metallo-organic compounds were dissolved together in the common solvent and the solution was homogeneous. From these solution, high Tc superconductors YBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ(Y₁₂₃), ErBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ(Er₁₂₃), and YbBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ(Yb₁₂₃) were prepared. XRD analysis showed that these superconductors were not single phase and contained some impurity phases including YBa2Cu4O8(Y124). This was also confirmed from the magnetic susceptibility measurement. Generally, critical temperatures were higher than that of the superconductors prepared by ceramic method. Volume diamagnetic susceptibility showed little variation compared to the specimen made by ceramic method.
