Title: Nature of Pb in superconducting cuprates containing lead: A Pb /ital L//sub 3/ x-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy study

X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy studies show that Pb in superconducting Tl/sub 0.5/Pb/sub 0.5/CaSr/sub 2/Cu/sub 2/O/sub 7+/delta// is essentially in the 4+ state while it is in the 2+ state in Pb/sub 2/Sr/sub 2/Ca/sub 1/minus//ital x/Ln//sub /ital x//Cu/sub 3/O/sub 8+/delta//.
