Abstract

Crystalline bismuthates Ba 1- x K x BiO 3 with x greater than 0.5 are obtained by a low temperature anodic electrocrystallization method in a potassium hydroxide molten flux. The x =0.56 bismuthate crystal shows 8 K superconductivity determined by SQUID measurement. Transport measurements on these crystals show that the temperature dependence of the normal state resistivity follows a simple power law up to the second order, while the Hall coefficient is temperature independent.
