We report on the synthesis and the physical properties of BaRbTiSbO () by x-ray diffraction, superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry, resistivity, and specific-heat measurements. Upon hole doping by substituting Ba with Rb, we find superconductivity with a maximumK. Simultaneously, the charge-density-wave transition temperature is strongly reduced fromK in the parent compoundand seems to be suppressed for. The bulk character of the superconducting state for the optimally doped sample () is confirmed by the occurrence of a well developed discontinuity in the specific heat at, withmJ/mol K, as well as a large Meissner-shielding fraction of40%. The isotropically averaged lower and upper critical fields of the optimally doped sample () are estimated tomT andT, respectively, indicating that these compounds are strongly type-II superconductors.
