Abstract

Results of recent research on electron-doped infinite-layer compounds (e.g., Sr1−xLaxCuO2), T′-phase compounds (e.g., Nd2−xCexCuO4), and spin-1/2 quasi-1-D ladder compounds (e.g., Sr14Cu24O41) are presented, including structural and magnetic measurements. Studies of steric effects indicate that superconductivity disappears in both electron-doped systems for values of the in-plane lattice constant below a critical value, acr ≈ 3.92 Å. Attempts to hole dope both the infinite-layer and T′ phases are described. For the quasi-1-D ladder compound Sr14Cu24O41, the anisotropic susceptibility of this system and its “small gap” are discussed. Collaborative studies of these systems using μSR, NMR, and other spectroscopies are reviewed.
