Abstract
Temperature dependence of resistivity rho(T) in normal state was studi ed for electron superconductors Nd2-xCexCuO4-delta in the cerium conce ntration range x = 0.12-0.20. For each of the investigated samples the rho(T) dependence is of the form: rho(T) = rho(0) + AT(2). With incre asing the cerium content the contribution of the quadratic term in rho (T) and the values of residual resistivity rho(0) decrease. The behavi or of rho(T) is qualitatively explained by the magnetic scattering of carriers by spin correlations, which is responsible for the quadratic dependence of rho(T).
