Abstract

Zn and Ca substitution effects in YBa2Cu3O7-δ single crystals are presented, focusing on the anisotropy in overdoped regime. Overdoping by Ca substitution lowers the pseudogap temperature T*, T* vanishes for heavily overdoped samples. The effect of oxygen deficiency by Ca-substitution is negligible. Zn substitution effect on residual part of c-axis resistivity is hardly observed, which is in contrast to the steady increase for in-plane resistivities.
