Abstract

Structural and superconducting properties of layered ruthenocuprates, RuSr2RECu2O8-δ and RuSr2(RE1-xCex)2Cu2O10-δ (RE = Sm, Eu, Gd), have been investigated. The differences between superconductivity of these two phases are due to their structural differences,i.e . fluorite layer between CuO2 planes in the latter phase. Because of it, RuSr2(RE1-xCex)2Cu2O10-δ has a large oxygen-nonstoichiometry range (δ ~ 0.15), while the oxygen defects in RuSr2RECu2O8-δ are negligible (δ ~ 0.03). On the other hand, the RE/Sr substitution is considered to be more feasible in RuSr2RECu2O8.-δ than in RuSr2(RE1-xCex)2Cu2O10-δ.
