Superconducting samples of type Bi 1.8 Pb 0.4 Sr 2 Ca 2.1 Cu 3−x Ru x O 10+δ , (Bi, Pb)-2223, with 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4 and type Tl 0.5 Pb 0.5 Sr 1.6 Ba 0.4 CaCu 2−x Ru x O 7−δ , (Tl, Pb)/ Sr-1212, with 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.525 were synthesized using the standard solid-state reaction technique. The lattice parameters and the surface morphology for these samples were determined using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) measurements, respectively. All element-contents of the samples prepared were estimated from the electron dispersive X-ray (EDX) technique, and their results were compared with those obtained from particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE). In addition, the oxygen-content was determined using elastic Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS) technique at 3 MeV proton beam. The superconducting transition temperature T c and the hole carrier concentration P were determined from the electrical resistivity measurement. The data of both T c and P for Bi 1.8 Pb 0.4 Sr 2 Ca 2.1 Cu 3−x Ru x O 10+δ and Tl 0.5 Pb 0.5 Sr 1.6 Ba 0.4 CaCu 2−x Ru x O 7−δ phases increased up to x = 0.05 and 0.075, respectively and then they decreased as x increased. The superconductivity was completely destroyed around x = 0.4 and 0.525 for (Bi, Pb)-2223 and (Tl, Pb)/Sr-1212 phases, respectively. The normal-state electrical resistivity data were analyzed using the two and three dimensional variable range hopping (2D-VRH and 3D-VRH) and the Coulomb gab (CG).
