We present a study of the magnetic properties of the electron doped manganites Ca1-xYxMnO3 (for 0<=x<=0.25) in the paramagnetic regime. For the less doped samples (x<=0.1) the magnetic susceptibility, c(T), follows a Curie-Weiss (CW) law…

We present a microscopic model for `electron doped' $Nd_{2-x}Ce_xCuO_4$ family and offer a resolution to a long standing doping asymmetry puzzle. Here, i) Ce atoms do not dope free electrons, instead a Ce atom effectively quenches a…

We report the temperature dependence of the infrared-visible conductivity of Pr(2-x)Ce(x)CuO(4) thin films. When varying the doping from a non-superconducting film (x = 0.11) to a superconducting overdoped film (x = 0.17), we observe, up to…

Exploring whether a spin density wave (SDW) is responsible for the charge excitations gap in the high-temperature superconducting cuprates is difficult, since the region of the phase diagram where the magnetic properties are clearly exposed…

The normal-state in-plane resistivity (\rho_{ab}) is measured in lightly Zn-doped La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4 (LSCO) crystals with 0.06 \leq x \leq 0.17 to systematically study the localization behavior. It is found that the localization temperature,…

The resistivity as function of temperature of high temperature superconductors is very unusual and despite its importance lacks an unified theoretical explanation. It is linear with the temperature for overdoped compounds but it falls more…

Generally strong charge and magnetic inhomogeneities are observed in NQR/NMR experiments on underdoped cuprates. It is not the case for the underdoped HgBa$_2$CuO$_{4+\delta}$, the most symmetric and highest T$_c$ single layer cuprate,…

The critical temperature of an underdoped cuprate superconductor is limited by its phase stiffness $\rho$. In this Letter we argue that the dependence of $\rho$ on doping $x$ should be understood as a consequence of deleterious competition…
