A series of Bi 2 Sr 2- x Ni x CaCu 2 O 8+ δ (x = 0.00, 0.10, 0.20 and 0.30) ceramics samples were synthesized by Pechini sol-gel method. In this work, the microstructure and structure stability of Ni-doped Bi2212 system were investigated particularly by X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy and high-pressure Raman spectroscopy. It is confirmed that the main phase of all samples is the typical Bi2212 tetragonal phase with space group I 4/ mmm. As Ni-doping amount x ≤ 0.20, the number of Ni atoms entering the Bi2212 lattice increases gradually with increasing x. These Ni atoms preferentially occupy Sr-sites, resulting in a gradual increase in the a and c axis lengths of Bi2212 structure. The formation of containing-Ni Bi2212 lattice is mainly derived from the insertion of sufficient Ni–O two-dimensional (2D) monomers. Contrarily, when x > 0.20, these Ni–O 2D monomers will preferentially form the NiO particle and the chance of Ni atoms entering the Bi2212 lattice is reduced, which leads to a shrinkage of Bi2212 lattice parameters. Besides, under high-pressure (0–20 GPa) condition, Raman spectrum analysis shows that the O Sr peak significantly shifts to the higher wavenumber and Bi2212 phase could still maintain the tetragonal structure, suggesting that it has a relatively high structure stability.
