High T$\_$c/ (Sm/Y)$\_$1.8/Ba$\_$2.4/Cu$\_$3.4/O$\_$7-$delta$/ ［(Sm/Y)］ superconductor, a combination of Y and Sm(50% each), was systematically investigated by the zone melt growth process. A sample prepared by this method showed well-textured microstructure, and (Sm/Y)$_2$BaCuO$\_$5/［(Sm/Y)211］inclusions were uniformly dispersed in large (Sm/Y)Ba$_2$Cu$_3$O$\_$y/ ［(Sm/Y)123］matrix. The sample showed a sharp superconducting transition at 91 K. The magnetization measurements of the (Sm/Y)1.8 sample exhibited the enhanced flux pinning, compared with Y$\_$1.8/Ba$\_$2.4/Cu$\_$3.4/O$\_$7-$delta$/(Y1.8) sample without Sm. Critical current densities of (Sm/Y) 1.8 sample was 3.5${ imes}$10$^4$A/$ extrm{cm}^2$ at 1 T and 77 K.
