The invention relates to a series of superconducting materials with the chemical general formula of CuIr<2-x>RuxTe4 (0.03 < = x < = 0.3) and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technicalfield of functional material manufacturing. The preparation method is of a traditional high-temperature 
solid-phase process. The method comprises the following steps: according to a corresponding stoichiometric ratio, fully 
grinding elemental Cu, ir, Ru and Te, vaccumizing and sealing a 
quartz tube, then vaccumizing the 
quartz tube and sealing the 
quartz tube at high temperature, and finally 
sintering the sealed quartz tube filled with raw materials in a furnace at 850 DEG C for 4 days to obtain polycrystalline 
powder of the CuIr<2-x>RuxTe4 (0.03 < = x < = 0.3). Physical properties are testedthrough a comprehensive 
physical property testing 
system (PPMS) is used for determining the 
superconductivity of the target product by measuring the physical properties such as 
conductivity, magneticproperties and 
heat capacity of the target product. This is the first reported Ru doped 
tellurium-containing AB2X4 type (A, B = 
metal ion, and X = O, S, Se, Te) series superconductor. By synthesizingthe compound, the application range of the AB2X4 type compound can be widened, so that the AB2X4 type compound has a huge application prospect in the aspects of 
electric power, communication, high-tech equipment, military equipment and the like.
