  • Abstract
    We present results of High-resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM), and of the electrical and magnetic properties with various magnetic fields applied in bulk sample of EuSr2RuCu2O8 . Our data suggest that crystallographic shear planes observed by transmission electron microscopy could be originating the anomalies observed in the magnetic and electric measurements. These defects constitute a discontinuity in the Ru-O charge reservoir layers forming anti-phase boundaries, with big amounts of Eu between Ru layers locally deficient in O.
