All the samples possess single-phase character and their superconducting transition temperatures (T
) are 85, 90, and 72 K, respectively for Bi2212-MQ, Bi2212-N2, and Bi2212-O2. Though the Bi2212-MQ and Bi2212-N2 samples are in near optimum doping regime, the Bi2212-O2 is an overdoped sample. T
values obtained through S(T) data are also in line with those determined from the temperature dependence of resistance (T
) and dc magnetization (T
). Interestingly, S(T) behavior of the optimally doped Bi2212-MQ and Bi2212-N2 samples is seen to be positive in whole temperature range, the same is found negative for the overdoped Bi2212-O2 sample above T
. This anomalous S(T) behavior is seen in the light of the recent band structure calculations and the ensuing split Fermi surface as determined by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy.
