Electrical resistivity measurements on La_1–xSm_xO_0.5F_0.5BiS₂ (x = 0.1, 0.3, 0.6, 0.8) have been performed under applied pressures up to 2.6 GPa from 2 K to room temperature. The superconducting transition temperature T_c of each sample significantly increases at a Sm-concentration dependent pressure P_t, indicating a pressure-induced phase transition from a low-T_c to a high-T_c phase. At ambient pressure, T_c increases dramatically from 2.8 K at x = 0.1 to 5.4 K at x = 0.8; however, the T_c values at P > P_t decrease slightly with x and P_t shifts to higher pressures with Sm substitution. In the normal state, semiconducting-like behavior is suppressed and metallic conduction is induced with increasing pressure in all of the samples. Furthermore, these results suggest that the pressure dependence of T_c for the BiS₂-based superconductors is related to the lattice parameters at ambient pressure and enable us to estimate the evolution of T_c for SmO_0.5F_0.5BiS₂ under pressure.
