(Ba1−xLax)3Cu3(O, F)y films were prepared using a sol-gel method. Phases, the c lattice parameters of which are about 13.8, 13.1, and 11.6 Å, respectively, were formed in the films. The compound with the c parameter of ˜13.8 Å is considered to be a Ba2−xLaxCuO2F2+δ which has the La2CuO4-type structure inserted with fluorine. The compound with the c parameter of ˜11.6 Å is thought to have a three-layered structure of the perovskite block which is arisen by ordering between La and Ba elements. The films containing these compounds showed some interesting anomalies in SQUID measurements. However, no film showed a drastic decrease of electrical resistance.
