Description

Magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity studies on polycrystalline SrRuO3 synthesized at 900 degree C and annealed at various temperatures in the range 950 endash 1300 degree C show the existence of two different phases of the compound, a phase with Tc=141 K formed below 1100 degree C and a second and normal phase having Tc=160 K obtained at higher processing temperatures (>1100 degree C). Both the phases have orthorhombic crystal symmetry with a marginal difference in their lattice parameters as evidenced from powder x-ray-diffraction measurements. copyright 1997 The American Physical Society
