ByX-ray powder diffraction technique and oxygen content analysis, a solid solution Sm
1+xBa
2-xCu
3O
y was determined with the solid solution region in 0 ≤
x ≤ 0.4. When
x<0.25, the Sm
1+xBa
2-xCu
3O
y presents orthorhombic symmetry, and the orthorhombic-tetragonal transition occurs at
x=0. 25. With the increase of
x,
Tc decreases and finally breaks off. The correlation between oxygen content and phase structure at different quench temperature related to SmBa
2Cu
3O
y, was investigated as well.
