[en] Samples with nominal starting composition (TICr₀.15)Sr₂(Ca_1-xM_x)Cu₂O₇ (TI-1212) for x=0 - 0.7 with M= Zn and Mn have been prepared and investigated by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrical resistance measurements. All sample showed a mixed phase of 1212 and 1201. Dominant 1212-phase was observed for x=0.0-0.5 and x=0.0-0.4, for Zn and Mn series, respectively. The superconducting transition temperature was suppressed when Zn and Mn are substituted at the Ca site. For the Zn series the normal state behavior is metallic throughout the doping range. For the Mn series the normal state behavior is metallic for 0.1≤x≥0.3 and semiconducting like x>0.3. The suppression of T_c and formation of the TI-1212 phase are discussed in terms of the ionic radius and valence state of the substituted elements. (author)
