Films of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O, with and without lead doping, were prepared by rf magnetron sputtering of oxide targets. The films were annealed in oxygen for varying durations and characterized by electron microprobe and x-ray diffraction. The results show a drastic loss of lead during annealing. Films with the lead-enhanced Bi/sub 2/Sr/sub 2/Ca/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub y/ (2223) phase had no detectable lead after annealing. The films were seen to grow in stages of 2201, 2212, and finally 2223 phases. The lead affected film development through these stages.
