The growth and characterization of Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O films on single-crystal (001)MgO substrates by rf magnetron sputtering with a single target are reported. The comparison of different post-annealing conditions revealed that the film annealed under controlled Pb potential gave best superconducting properties with {ital T}{sub {ital c}0} above 105 K. The proper doping of Pb not only accelerated the formation of the high-{ital T}{sub {ital c}} phase, but also improved the connectivity of high-{ital T}{sub {ital c}} grains.
