Abstract
Element-specific x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements at the Ru L3 absorption edge are used to search for the presence of a net Ru ferromagnetic moment in the superconducting state of RuSr2Eu 1.5Ce0.5Cu2O10. A net moment of 0.21 μB /Ru is observed in zero applied field. Together with a homogeneous Ru local structure probed by x-ray absorption fine-structure measurements, the results unequivocally demonstrate the coexistence of a ferromagnetic component in the magnetically ordered RuO2 planes with superconductivity in the CuO2 planes.
