Possible Competition between superconductivity and magnetism in RuSr2Gd1.5Ce0.5Cu2O10-d (Ru-1222) Rutheno-cuprate compounds
V. P. S. Awana, M. A. Ansari, Anurag Gupta +4
The RuSr2Gd1.5Ce0.5Cu2O10-d (Ru-1222) compounds, with varying oxygen content, crystallize in a tetragonal crystal structure (space group I4/mmm). Resistance (R) versus temperature…
Comparison of the superconducting critical transition temperature of LaBaCaCu3O7-d and NdBaCaCu3O7-d
V. P. S. Awana, M. A. Ansari, Rashmi Nigam +3
LaBaCaCu3O7 (La:1113) and NdBaCaCu3O7 (Nd:1113) compounds are synthesized by solid state reaction route. Both compounds crystallize in tetragonal structure. Four probe resistivity…
Effect of Sr substitution on the stability of CuO chains in oxygen and nitrogen annealed YBa2-xSrxCu3O(x = 0.0, 0.50, 1.0) superconducting system
M. A. Ansari, V. P. S. Awana, Anurag Gupta +2
Samples of YBa2-xSrxCu3O7-d (x = 0.0, 0.50, 1.0) series were synthesized by solid-state reaction and first annealed in flowing O2 gas. All samples crystallized in orthorhombic stru…
Spin Glass Behavior in the Ru-1222 and Ru-1212 rutheno-cuprate families: a comparative study
C. A. Cardoso, F. M. Araujo-Moreira, V. P. S. Awana +3
Strong evidences of a spin glass phase on polycrystalline RuSr2Ln1.5Ce0.5Cu2O10-x (LnRu-1222, Ln = Y, Ho and Dy) is provided by ac susceptibility and dc magnetization measurements.…
Oxygen Stoichiometry in Co-1212, Co-1222 and Co-1232 of Homologous Series Co-12s2 of Category-B Layered Copper Oxides
Y. Morita, V. P. S. Awana, H. Yamauchi +1
Here results of a systematic study on oxygen stoichiometry are reported for the first three members of the novel CoSr2(Y,Ce)sCu2O5+2s or Co-12s2 homologous series, i.e. Co-1212, Co…
Magnetosuperconductivity in ruthenocuprates RuSr2GdCu2O8(Ru 1212) and RuSr2(Gd0.75Ce0.25)2Cu2O10 (Ru 1222) a critical review
V. P. S. Awana, M. Karppinen, H. Yamauchi
We reviewed our various results on rutheno-cuprate magneto-superconductors RuSr2GdCu2O8(Ru-1212) and RuSr2(Gd0.75Ce0.25)2Cu2O10(Ru-1222). It is observed, that it is difficult to co…
