We have investigated the evolution of the temperature dependence of the in-plane and off-plane conductivity of YBa2Cu3O7−δ single crystals due to the decrease of the oxygen content in the samples caused by a heat treatment. The concentration dependence of the in-plane and off-plane energy gaps has been determined. It has been shown that the enhancement of the localization effects results in a suppression of the pseudogap state. At the same time, the decrease of the oxygen content results in a relative narrowing of the temperature interval in which the regime of fluctuation conductivity is realized.
The existence of spin-polarized complexes or magnetic polarons in magnetic semiconductors has been suggested theoretically some time ago, but up to now there is little experimental evidence of this phenomenon. With this in view, electron paramagnetic resonance is investigated (g-factor and linewidth temperature coefficient) and also several other electrical and magnetic parameters of EuO-based magnetic semiconductors with various donor concentrations (oxygen vacancies or Gd3+ ions substituting Eu2+ ions). The results of the investigation show that in a limited region of donor concentrations and temperatures there occurs a localization of charge carriers which may be attributed to the formation of magnetic polarons.
Die Existenz von spinpolarisierten Komplexen oder magnetischen Polaronen in magnetischenHalbleitern wurde theoretisch vor einiger Zeit vorhergesagt, doch bis heute gibt es wenige experimentelle Hinweise fur dieses Phiinomen. In dieser Hinsicht werden die elektronenparamagnetische Resonanz (g-Faktor und Temperaturkoeffizient der Linienbreite) und auch einige andere elektrische und magnetische Parameter von magnetischen Halbleitern auf EuO-Basis mit verschiedenen Donatorkonzentrationen (Sauerstoff-Leerstellen oder Gda+-Ionen die Euzf-Ionen substituieren) untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daD in einem begrenzten Bereich von Donatorkonzentrationen und Temperaturen eine Lokalisierung der Ladungstriiger auftritt, die der Bildung von magnetischen Polaronen zugeschrieben werden kann.
