Abstract
We have measured the static magnetic susceptibility and the resistivity of Zn(0 less than or equal to z less than or equal to 0.25) and Sr (0 less tha n or equal to x less than or equal to 0.03) doped La2CuO4. Our data clearly show that Zn impurities lead to an increase of the Neel temperature T-N in weakly hole doped compounds. This increase of T-N correlates with an incre ase of the resistivity. The analysis of our data strongly suggests that the hole mobility is the most important source for the strong suppression of a ntiferromagnetic order in La2-xSrxCuO4. [S0163-1829(99)50102-1].
