Abstract
We report the results of μSR investigations of the ceramic samples La2-xSrxCuO4-σ (x=0.1, 0.15, 0.25) and ReBa2Cu3O7-σ (Re=Er, Ho, Y0.5Ho0.5) in the external magnetic field 0–800 Oe. The measurements were performed by the ZFC and FC methods. The irreversibility effects were studied at several temperatures by measuring the mean value and the width of the magnetic field distribution on the muon in the step by step procedure of increasing and subsequent decreasing of the external field. The temperature dependences of the magnetic penetration depth perpendicular to the basal plane λ⊥ were obtained. For the lanthanum sample with 0.15 of Sr its value at the zero temperature is λ⊥ (0)=2400 Å, for Er-Ba-Cu-O λ⊥ (0)=1600 Å.
