摘要: Abstract Synthesis in 1% oxygen at 930°C leads to non-superconducting RuSr 2 GdCu O 8 which superconductivity subsequently can be induced with annealings without observable stoichiometric changes. Detailed ac susceptibility and zero-field muon-spin rotation experiments reveal that the superconducting compounds always exhibit a lower temperature of magnetic transition larger values internal field ordered state Ru sublattice. The same oxygen, however, lead EuCu . properties newly discovered series 1− x Sr 2+ 8− y superconductors (maximum T c =72 K for =0.4) are reported. Low behavior magnetization shows significant contribution paramagnetic system Gd ions response below transition. Muon-spin presence transitions low temperatures XANES CuK absorption edge data show an increase Cu valence
