Anomalous temperature dependence of the resistivity was observed in Ba-Y-Cu-O systems whose starting composition is different from the Ba, Y, Cu ratio of 2:1:3. It may be attributed to an occurrence of partial superconductivity with higher transition temperature than 90 K, or a semiconductor-metal transition.
