Inelastic neutron scattering for Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_{4+delta}$ near optimal doping ($x approx 0.155$, $T_{c} = 25 mathrm{K}$) reveals that the dynamic magnetic susceptibility at the antiferromagnetic zone center exhibits two characteristic energies in the superconducting state: $omega_1 approx 6.4 mathrm{meV}$ and $omega_2 approx 4.5 mathrm{meV}$. These two magnetic energies agree $quantitatively$ with the $B_{1g}$ / $B_{2g}$ and $A_{1g}$ features previously observed in electronic Raman scattering, where the former is believed to indicate the maximum electronic gap and the origin of the smaller $A_{1g}$ feature has remained unexplained. The susceptibility change upon cooling into the superconducting state is inconsistent with previous claims of the existence of a magnetic resonance mode near 10 meV, but consistent with a resonance at $omega_2$.

High-transition-temperature (high-Tc) superconductivity develops near antiferromagnetic phases, and it is possible that magnetic excitations contribute to the superconducting pairing mechanism. To assess the role of antiferromagnetism, it is essentia
l to understand the doping and temperature dependence of the two-dimensional antiferromagnetic spin correlations. The phase diagram is asymmetric with respect to electron and hole doping, and for the comparatively less-studied electron-doped materials, the antiferromagnetic phase extends much further with doping [1, 2] and appears to overlap with the superconducting phase. The archetypical electron-doped compound Nd{2-x}Ce{x}CuO{4pmdelta} (NCCO) shows bulk superconductivity above x approx 0.13 [3, 4], while evidence for antiferromagnetic order has been found up to x approx 0.17 [2, 5, 6]. Here we report inelastic magnetic neutron-scattering measurements that point to the distinct possibility that genuine long-range antiferromagnetism and superconductivity do not coexist. The data reveal a magnetic quantum critical point where superconductivity first appears, consistent with an exotic quantum phase transition between the two phases [7]. We also demonstrate that the pseudogap phenomenon in the electron-doped materials, which is associated with pronounced charge anomalies [8-11], arises from a build-up of spin correlations, in agreement with recent theoretical proposals [12, 13].
Results of low-temperature upper critical field measurements for Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_{4+delta}$ single crystals with various $x$ and nonstoichiometric disorder ($delta$) are presented. The coherence length of pair correlation $xi$ and the product $k
_F$$xi$, where $k_F$ is the Fermi wave vector, are estimated. It is shown that for investigated single crystals parameter $k_F$$xi$ $cong$ 100 and thus phenomenologically NdCeCuO - system is in a range of Cooper-pair-based (BCS) superconductivity.
Transport properties of Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_{4+delta}$ single crystal films are investigated in magnetic fields $B$ up to 9T at $T$=(0.4-4.2)K. An analysis of normal state (at $B>B_{c2}$) Hall coefficient $R_H$$^n$ dependence on Ce doping takes us t
o a conclusion about the existence both of electron-like and hole-like contributions to transport in nominally electron-doped system. In accordance with $R_H$$^n$(x) analysis an anomalous sign reversal of Hall effect in mixed state at $B<B_{c2}$ may be ascribed to a flux-flow regime for two types of carriers with opposite charges.
We use inelastic neutron scattering to probe magnetic excitations of an optimally electron-doped superconductor Nd$_{1.85}$Ce$_{0.15}$CuO$_{4-delta}$ above and below its superconducting transition temperature $T_c=25$ K. In addition to gradually open
ing a spin pseudo gap at the antiferromagnetic ordering wavevector ${bf Q}=(1/2,1/2,0)$, the effect of superconductivity is to form a resonance centered also at ${bf Q}=(1/2,1/2,0)$ but at energies above the spin pseudo gap. The intensity of the resonance develops like a superconducting order parameter, similar to those for hole-doped superconductors and electron-doped Pr$_{0.88}$LaCe$_{0.12}$CuO$_4$. The resonance is therefore a general phenomenon of cuprate superconductors, and must be fundamental to the mechanism of high-$T_c$ superconductivity.
We use inelastic neutron scattering to study the evolution of the generalized phonon density of states (GDOS) of the $n$-type high-$T_c$ superconductor Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_{4+delta}$ (NCCO), from the half-filled Mott-insulator ($x=0$) to the $T_c=24
$ K superconductor ($x=0.15$). Upon doping the CuO$_2$ planes in Nd$_2$CuO$_{4+delta}$ (NCO) with electrons by Ce substitution, the most significant change in the GDOS is the softening of the highest phonon branches associated with the Cu-O bond stretching and out-of-plane oxygen vibration modes. However, the softening occurs within the first few percent of Ce-doping and is not related to the electron doping induced nonsuperconducting-superconducting transition (NST) at $xapprox 0.12$. These results suggest that the electron-lattice coupling in the $n$-type high-$T_c$ superconductors is different from that in the $p$-type materials.
