Tl1−xPbxCaSr2Cu2O7: Another 1122 high-Tc superconductor

The 1122 member of the Tl(Ca, Sr)n+1CunO2n+3 system is stabilized by partial substitution of Tl by Pb. Tl1−xPbxCaSr2Cu2O7 with x=0.25 and 0.5 have both primitive tetragonal structures (c 12.1 Å) showing onset of superconductivity around 70 K and 90 K, respectively.
