Two-dimensional quantum interference contributions to the magnetoresistance of Nd{2-x}Ce{x}CuO{4-d} single crystals
The 2D weak localization effects at low temperatures T = (0.2-4.2)K have been
investigated in nonsuperconducting sample Nd{1.88}Ce{0.12}CuO{4-d} and in the
normal state of the superconducting sample Nd{1.82}Ce{0.18}CuO{4-d} for B>B_c2.
The phase coherence time and the effective thickness of a conducting CuO_2
layer have been estimated by the fitting of 2D weak localization theory
expressions to the magnetoresistivity data for the normal to plane and the
in-plane magnetic fields.Comment: 5 pages, 4 postscript figure
