The Gd3+ ESR Knight shift at 245 GHz and the spin relaxation broadening at 245 and 9.2 GHz in Gd0.01Y0.99Ba2Cu3Oy (with various values of between 6.05 and 7.0) are in agreement with published Y-89 NMR data above 70 K and provide additional measurements at the rare earth site at much lower temperatures. In the superconducting compounds chi(T) differs strongly from the Yoshida function and at low T it follows a T or T-2 dependence. An anomalous ESR line shape is found at low T in the superconducting state; we provisionally attribute this to a small (10(-2)-10(-3) mu(B)) static magnetic moment on planar Cu sites.}, year = {1996}, eissn = {2469-9969}, pages = {10186-10191} } @article{MTMT:2609330, title = {89Y NMR study of the effect of Zn substitution on the spin dynamics of YBa2Cu4O8}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2609330}, author = {Williams, GVM and Tallon, JL and Meinhold, R and Jánossy, András}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevB.51.16503}, journal-iso = {PHYS REV B}, journal = {PHYSICAL REVIEW B}, volume = {51}, unique-id = {2609330}, issn = {2469-9950}, abstract = {Zn-substituted YBa2Cu4O8 high-temperature superconductors have been probed by 89Y nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), susceptibility, and thermopower measurements. With 89Y NMR we have been able to study the gap in the spin density of states using the real part of the spin susceptibility determined from the Knight shift as Zn is progressively substituted onto the plane copper site. Zn substitution results in a rapid decrease in Tc with a negligible decrease in the spin-gap energy and an inhomogeneous filling in of the gap in spin density of states.}, year = {1995}, eissn = {2469-9969}, pages = {16503-16506} }
