Abstract

The magnetic properties of non-superconducting Nd2-xCe xCuO4±δ were studied using neutron scattering methods. It was stated that using Monte Carlo methods it was possible to describe the instantaneous correlation length for the randomly site-diluted nearest neighbor spin-1/2 square-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet. It was found that the effect of quantum fluctuations was strong on the ordered moment, which decreases more rapidly than for quenched-disorder model. Phonon anomalies were observed in both electron hole-doped high-temperature superconductors.
