A fabrication method of homogeneous (Sm{sub o.5}Y{sub 0.5})Ba{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7{minus}{delta}} superconductor substituted Y with Sm has been developed using zone melting process. A sample prepared by this method showed well textured microstructure and (Sm{sub 0.5}Y{sub 0.5}){sub 2}BaCuO{sub 5} particles were uniformly dispersed in large (Sm{sub 0.5}Y{sub 0.5})Ba{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7{minus}{delta}} grain. The sample showed a sharp superconducting transition at 90.3 K. The magnetization measurements of the (Sm{sub 0.5}Y{sub 0.5})Ba{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7{minus}{delta}} sample exhibited the enhanced flux pinning compared with YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7{minus}{delta}} samples without Sm. Critical current densities of (Sm{sub 0.5}Y{sub 0.5})Ba{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7{minus}{delta}} was 1.8 x 10{sup 4} A/cm{sup 2} at 10 kOe and 77 K.
