TL;DR
This study investigates magnetization anomalies in RuSr2GdCu2O8's superconducting state and compares them with Sr2GdRuO6 to determine their origin, revealing that the anomalies are intrinsic to Ru-1212.
Contribution
The paper provides a detailed magnetic analysis of Ru-1212 and Sr-2116, clarifying that the observed anomalies are not caused by Sr-2116 impurities, highlighting their intrinsic nature.
Findings
Magnetization peaks are intrinsic to Ru-1212.
Sr-2116 impurities do not account for the anomalies.
Magnetic behavior similarities do not imply impurity influence.
Abstract
d.c. magnetization measurements performed on a polycrystalline sample of RuSr2GdCu2O8 (Ru-1212) showed distinct peaks of the magnetization upon entering the superconducting state. Since Sr2GdRuO6 (Sr-2116) is the precursor for the preparation of Ru-1212, a detailed investigation of the magnetic properties of Sr-2116 was carried out. Although similarities were observed in the magnetic behavior of Sr-2116 and Ru-1212 in the temperature range of the observed peaks, we can exclude, based on a quantitative comparison, that the anomalies observed for Ru-1212 are due to Sr-2116 impurities.
