A new barium copper niobate, Ba4CuNb3O12, was successfully prepared by high-temperature solid-state reaction in an inert atmosphere. Rietveld-refinement analysis of the XRD data of the compound showed that it has the 8H-type hexagonal perovskite structure with space group P63/mmc (#194), a = 5.830(1) Å, c = 19.123(1) Å, and chemical composition of Ba4Cu1.84Nb2.16O12-δ.
