Abstract

Josephson plasma in RuSr2GdCu2O8, Ru1−xSr2GdCu2+xO8 (x=0.3), and RuSr2Eu2−xCexCu2O10 (x=0.5) compounds is investigated by the sphere resonance method. The Josephson plasma is observed in a low-frequency region (around 8.5 cm−1 at T≪Tc) for ferromagnetic RuSr2GdCu2O8, while it increases to 35 cm−1 for nonferromagnetic Ru1−xSr2GdCu2+xO8 (x=0.3), which represents a large reduction in the Josephson coupling at ferromagnetic RuO2 block layers. The temperature dependence of the plasma does not shift to zero frequency (i.e., jc=0) at low temperatures, indicating that there is no transition from the zero phase to the π phase in these compounds. The temperature dependence and the oscillator strength of the peak are different from those of other nonmagnetic cuprates, and the origins of these anomalies are discussed.
