L. Trappeniers et al., Normal state resistivity of underdoped YBa2Cu3Ox thin films and La2-xSrxCuO4 ultra-thin films under epitaxial strain, J L TEMP PH, 117(3-4), 1999, pp. 681-685
The normal state resistivity of high temperature superconductors can be pro
bed in the region below T-c by suppressing the superconducting state in hig
h magnetic fields. Here we present the normal state properties of YBa2Cu3Ox
, thin films in the underdoped regime and the normal state resistance of La
2-xSrxCuO4 thin films under epitaxial strain, measured below T-c by applyin
g pulsed fields up to 60 T. We interpret these data in terms of the recentl
y proposed 1D quantum transport model with the 1D paths corresponding to th
e charge stripes.
