Abstract

It has been established that, at a strongly nonuniform distribution of oxygen in a La2CuO4 + δ single crystal, isolated superconducting inclusions can be formed at an average hole concentration not higher than 0.0024 per copper atom. The behavior of the conductivity in a magnetic field below 20 K is consistent with possible existence of a insulating low-temperature magnetic phase (spin density waves), which is typical of cuprates with excess oxygen.
