Abstract

A Mg -substituted material with nominal composition Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca 3 Mg 2 Cu 6 O x, prepared by partial substitution of Ca by isovalent Mg in the 2256 composition of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O , has been studied by the measurements of electrical resistance, magnetic susceptibility and X-ray diffraction pattern. Results show the existence of a superconducting phase with onset T c at 112.5±1 K along with a minor phase with onset T c =88 K . The material retained superconducting characteristics (Meissner effect and T c onset ) even after a period of six months.
