“…The Tl/Sr system can be written as TlSr 2 Ca n-1 Cu n O z with n = 1-3 (Lee, 2011 (Subramanian et al, 1988), Bi 3+ (Li and Greenblatt, 1988) or Cr 3+ (Sheng et al, 1989;Li et al, 1995;Abd-Shukor and Jaafar, 1999) may assist the formation of Tl-1212 phase. Critical temperature around 100 K of the Bi-substituted sample in Tl-1212 (i.e., (Tl,Bi)Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 7 ) has been reported (Abd-Shukor and Tee, 1998), Pb-doped (Cu 0.5-x Pb x Tl 0.5 ) Ba 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 10-δ superconductor was reported with a Tc of 115 K (Nawazish and Ullah, 2010). The effect of rare earth elements was found to favor the formation of the Tl-1212 phase (Eder and Gritzner, 2005).…”
