Description

We have studied a zero bias anomaly in scanning tunnelling spectra of the layered ruthenate Sr4Ru3O10. This material shows a dip-like feature in the dI/dV spectra, which has previously observed in the single-layer Sr2RuO4 and double-layer Sr3Ru2O7 ruthenates. We have studied in particular the temperature dependence of the zero bias anomaly, which is in all three materials different. The triple-layer material shows intergrowth of single and double layers, which have been identified by their spectroscopic fingerprint. Finally, we discuss different effects as possible explanations for the zero bias anomaly
