A Cd analogue of the Tl and Hg n=3 series with nominal composition CdBa{sub 2}Ca{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub y} has been synthesized. The samples were superconducting according to magnetic susceptibility measurements. The critical temperature was 103 or 107 K depending on the preparation conditions. The EDX analysis revealed the presence of Cd-1111, Cd-1121, and Cd-2333 as minor phases. The observed diamagnetic effects were attributed to the different T{sub c} of these phases.
