Abstract

Bi2-xPbxSr2(Y, Ce)2Cu2O10+δ , a new family of lead containing Bi-2222 compounds has been synthesized and effects of annealing in high pressure of oxygen studied. Lead-free Bi2Sr2(Y, Ce)2Cu2O10+δ synthesized under flowing oxygen is known to be non-superconducting, but annealing under high oxygen pressure (100 bar) at 500° C, induced superconductivity with Tc=25 K. On substitution of lead (x>0.4), the superconductivity appears even in samples synthesized under flowing oxygen (1 bar). Tcincreases with oxygen annealing pressure for all compositions, and it also increases with Pb content at a given oxygen pressure. These findings are discussed.
