Abstract We have investigated the temperature dependence of the electrical transport and the thermogravimetric properties, from -200°C to +1000Ć, of the Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O high-temperature superconductor. We conclude that this system has a cooperative, simultaneous-melting/oxygen desorption/metal-insulator transition that occurs near 900°C. We speculate on its nature and on its relationship to phenomena found in other high-T c superconductors.
