Crystal structure of the ferromagnetic superconductor RuSr₂(Gd_1.3Ce_0.7)Cu₂O_10 –  by powder neutron diffraction

---

The 1222-type ferromagnetic, superconducting cuprate, RuSr₂(¹⁶⁰Gd_1.3Ce_0.7)Cu₂O_10 – , contains RuO₆ octahedra that are rotated 13.4° around the c-axis and tilted reducing the Cu–O(1)–Ru angle to 168.2° at 295 K. The oxygen deficiency has been determined as 0.22, indicating a hole doping mechanism, similar to that proposed for GdSr₂RuCu₂O₈, facilitates superconductivity.
