Za. Ren et al., Coexistence of magnetism and superconductivity in a new Fe-containing cuprate superconductor (Fe0.5Cu0.5)SrBaYCu2O7+delta, SOL ST COMM, 119(10-11), 2001, pp. 579-584
In this paper, we demonstrate the coexistence of ferromagnetism and superco
nductivity in a new cuprate superconductor (Fe0.5Cu0.5)SrBaYCu2O7+delta syn
thesized under high pressure. This compound has a 1212-type structure, with
tetragonal symmetry, lattice parameters a = 3.844(3), c = 11.53(2) Angstro
m and S.G. = P4/mmm. This ferromagnetic superconductor displays a magnetic
transition temperature T-M = 150 K and a superconducting transition tempera
ture T-C = 77 K. The occurrence of ferromagnetism in this superconductor ca
n be explained by Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya (D-M)-type superexchange interaction
