  A dc magnetic study is reported on c-axis oriented epitaxial thin films of
EuSr2Eu1.5Ce0.5Cu2O10 (Ru-1222) on (100) SrTiO3 wafers. Magnetic measurements
on 200 and 500 nm thick films were performed with the magnetic field either
parallel or perpendicular to the wafer. We found that the films order
magnetically at 180 K. The easy axis of the magnetization is in the basal plane
and the Ru5+ ions are in their high-spin state, as deduced from the isothermal
magnetization curves at low temperatures. The anisotropy ratio was found to be
7.5. The observed results are compared to data of the Ru-1222 ceramic material.
