Volume III/27 covers the magnetic properties of non-metallic inorganic compounds based on transition elements. It can therefore be considered as a supplement supplement to volumes III/4 and III/12 "Magnetic and Other Properties of Magnetic Oxides and Related Compounds" which appeared in 1970 and in the period 1978-1982 respectively. The magnetic properties of the oxides with curundum, ilmenite and perovskite-type crystal structure and amorphous oxides are given in volume 27f. The present subvolume III/27f2 contains a comprehensive survey of the perovskite-type layered cuprates, i.e. the high-Tc superconductors and related compounds, and will therefore also be of great interest for all those working on the understanding and the development of high-Tc superconductors.weiterlesen
