We examine the electronic states of Sr$_{14-x}$Ca$_x$Cu$_{24}$O$_{41}$ by the ionic and cluster model approach. It is found that self-doped holes are likely to stay on the chain at $x=0$ and the Ca substitution drives the holes to move to…

Spin-ladder compounds make interesting analogs of the high-temperature superconductors, because they contain layers of nearly one-dimensional "ladders" consisting of a square array of copper and oxygen atoms. Increasing the number of legs…
The unoccupied electronic structure for the Sr_14Cu_24O_41 family of two-leg ladder compounds was investigated for different partial substitutions of Sr^2+ by Ca^2+, leaving the nominal hole count constant, and by Y^3+ or La^3+, reducing…
Electron spin resonance data of Cu^{2+} ions in La_{14-x}Ca_{x}Cu_{24}O_{41} crystals (x=9,11,12) reveal a very large width of the resonance line in the paramagnetic state. This signals an unusually strong anisotropy of ~10% of the…
We formulate charge transfer model for a single doped spin ladder, relevant for the intrinsically doped plane of coupled spin ladders in Sr$_{3}$Ca$_{11}$Cu$_{24}$O$_{41}$. Assuming the presence of the experimentally observed charge order…
One of the deepest questions in condensed matter physics concerns what other phases compete with superconductivity in high-transition-temperature (high-Tc) superconductors. One candidate is the "stripe" phase, in which the carriers (holes)…
