Firstly, dry gel powder of Sr14Cu24O41 was synthesized by the citrates sol-gel method, using Sr(NO3)2, Cu(NO3)2, ethylene glycol and citrate acid as raw materials.

Thermal Gravimetric and Differential Thermal Analysis(TG-DTA) showed that the temperature for solid-state reaction is at 942 ℃. The samples are identified to be single phase by X-ray Diffraction(XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM).
