Abstract

Cu63 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements on the electron-doped high-temperature superconducting cuprates Pr2−xCexCuO4 reveal a large temperature-dependent reduction in the Cu NMR intensity for x⩽0.125 and below room temperature. Our results show that the previous report of a reduction in the Cu63 NMR intensity in Sr0.9La0.1CuO2 with 0.1 doped electrons per Cu is not specific to this superconductor. Rather, the doping-dependent reduction appears to be intrinsic to the electron-doped superconductors. Our results provide further evidence that there is a symmetry in the electron-doped and hole-doped superconducting phase diagrams where a significant temperature-dependent reduction of the Cu NMR intensity occurs for less than ∼0.13 doped holes or doped electrons per Cu.
