摘要： Hole-overdoped Bi2Sr2-xLaxCuO6+$\delta$ single crystals with two coexistent superconducting transitions have been intensively studied by measuring the dc magnetic susceptibility. It is found that the coexistence of these two phases cannot be attributed to any chemical or vortex dynamical effect but to some intrinsic driving force, such as the electronic-driven phase separation. Furthermore, the upper critical fields of the two phases behave in a rather different way; that is, one of them shows a "normal Hc2 behavior" which can be described by the critical fluctuation theory, while the other exhibits an "anomalous Hc2 behavior" and can be well explained by a recent theory based on an assumption of a Josephson-coupling origin, indicating a strong evidence of Josephson-coupling origin for the upward curvature of the so-called Hc2 in high Tc superconductors.
