We have fabricated superconducting proximity junctions with an s-wave superconductor Pb and a eutectic crystal of Sr2RuO4-Ru. We have reproducibly found that the critical current Ic appears above 1.5 K but it is sharply suppressed just below 1.5 K (the bulk Tc of pure Sr2RuO4). Curiously, Ic becomes strong again below about 1.2 K. In this presentation, I will discuss possible mechanisms to explain this unusual behavior of Ic. The collaborators in this work are Ryoji NAKAGAWA , Shingo YONEZAWA , Takahito TERASHIMA , and Yoshiteru MAENO .
