(Bi-Sr-O)/(Ca-Cu-O) multilayered films were prepared by a plasma-controlled sputtering method and annealed under various conditions to induce the superconductivity in the films. The annealing in the presence of PbO vapor at 860 /degree/C was effective to convert the unleaded insulating multilayered films to superconductors with onset and zero-resistivity temperatures of 113 and 103 K, respectively. Auger electron spectroscopy verified the incorporation of Pb in the films.
