Abstract: | New Ru-based layered cuprates with 1232 structure have been synthesized in the RuSr2(LnCe2?x Sr x )Cu2O z (Ln = Sm, Eu, and Gd) system. Nearly single-phase samples are obtained in the composition range from x = 0.0 to 0.2 for Ln = Sm and Eu, and at the composition of x = 0.2 for Ln = Gd. Each of the samples of Ln = Sm, Eu, and Gd with x = 0.2 crystallizes in a tetragonal lattice and lattice parameters a and c are 0.3845 and 1.700 nm, 0.3842 and 1.699 nm, and then 0.3839 and 1.698 nm, respectively. Each of them shows some anomalies at a low temperature in addition to a semiconductor-like temperature dependence of the resistivity. Especially, the sample with Ln = Gd shows two resistivity dropping phenomena at about 16 and 22 K. Then, all of nearly single-phase samples show diamagnetic signals originating from superconductivity, and also rapid increase of magnetization due to a transition from paramagnetic state to ferromagnetic one below 80 K. |
