The recent discovery of superconductivity in Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) nickelate La₃Ni₂O₇ under pressure has attracted significant research attention. However, the exact phase that facilitates this superconductivity remains unidentified, partly due to the complexities in managing RP stacking faults in single crystals. To address this issue, we present a comprehensive growth study focusing on identifying the potential superconducting phase using high-quality pure-phase polycrystalline La₃Ni₂O_7−δ samples. The implications on the critical role of oxygen deficiency will be discussed.
