Abstract

We report high pressure synthesis of electron doped infinite layer superconductor Sr$_{0.9}$La$_{0.1}$CuO$_2$. Structural and low-field magnetization study demonstrated that the superconducting quality of our samples were best among all kind of bulk samples reported until now. With these good samples, many new findings are under going by our collaborators and us.
