Abstract
Doping effects have been studied by using La2-ySryCu1-χMχO4 (M = Zn, Ni and Mg) and YBa2(Cu1-χZnχ)3O6+y. The rate of Tc-suppression, |dTc/dχ|, is found to be inversely proportional to the carrier concentration p. The disappearance of the superconductivity with Cu-site doping seems to be primarily due to the loss of the itinerant nature of the holes, which is supported by the variation of the spectral function χ(ω) of the magnetic excitations with temperature, studied by neutron scattering on YBa2(Cu0.965Zn0.035)3O6.75. The peak of Hall coefficient versus T curves and the "spin gap" effect found in the T-dependence of the resistivities ρ{variant} become less significant with Zn-doping.
