Abstract
A description is given of superconducting substances having a content of Bi, Sr, Ca and Cu, and of processes for their preparation from the metal oxides within a range which is specified by the overall composition Bi.sub.a (Sr,Ca).sub.b -Cu.sub.6 O.sub.x, where a=3-24 and b=3.23-24, with an Sr/Ca atomic ratio of 1:9-9:1 and a Bi:(Ca+Sr) atomic ratio of 0.3-1.5. The transition temperature is at least 60 K. The principal phase crystallizes in the orthorhombic system. The pure compounds Bi.sub.4 (Sr,Ca).sub.4 Cu.sub.2 O.apprxeq..sub.12 and Bi.sub.4 (Sr,Ca).sub.6 Cu.sub.4 O.apprxeq..sub.20.
