Abstract
An oxide superconductor comprising a crystal of LnBa.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.y (wherein Ln is at least one of rare earth elements including Y) and, finely dispersed therein, Ln.sub.2 BaCuO.sub.5 and a composite oxide of PtBaCuO having an average particle diameter of 0.1 to 10 .mu.m is disclosed. The oxide superconductor is produced by melting a raw material powder comprising a composite oxide of Ln, Ba and Cu, rapidly solidifying the melt, pulverizing the resultant solid, mixing a Pt powder with the pulverized mixture, forming a resultant mixture, heating a resultant formed body to bring the formed body to a partially-molten state and cooling the partially-molten material.
