We measured the specific heat of single crystals of non-cuprate layered perovskite superconductor Sr 2 RuO 4 . The crystals with different T c up to 1.2 K exhibit a large residual electronic coefficient γ 0 , which decreases systematically with increasing T c . This behavior is consistent with the presence of nodes in the superconducting gap and with the variations of T c due to pair breaking by impurities and defects. To quantitatively account for the observed large γ 0 , however, we need to introduce additional mechanism.
