An overview on some works recently carried out by means of pulsed NMR-NQR experiments is given. The choice of the arguments is aimed at providing a flash on the topics and phenomena most tipically studied with the afore-mentioned approach: from the antiferromagnets (AF) precursors of high-temperature superconductors upon charge and spin doping (such as CuO-doped Li, La2CuO4-doped Sr and Zn) to the doping regime leading to superconductivity in LASCO and YBCO with the related issues involving the comparison with the Fermi-liquid behaviour, the possible opening of a pseudo-spin-gap above T c and the anisotropy and field effect ratios below T c, the latter also in relation to the s-wave or d-wave orbital coupling. Finally, the topic of the motions of the flux lines in YBCO is addressed, in particular by discussing some experiments based on spin-echo dephasing due to thermal excitations and in the presence of d.c. currents and pulsed magnetic fields.

Abstract
An overview on some works recently carried out by means of pulsed NMR-NQR experiments is given. The choice of the arguments is aimed at providing a flash on the topics and phenomena most tipically studied with the afore-mentioned approach: from the antiferromagnets (AF) precursors of high-temperature superconductors upon charge and spin doping (such as CuO-doped Li, La2CuO4-doped Sr and Zn) to the doping regime leading to superconductivity in LASCO and YBCO with the related issues involving the comparison with the Fermi-liquid behaviour, the possible opening of a pseudo-spin-gap above T c and the anisotropy and field effect ratios below T c, the latter also in relation to the s-wave or d-wave orbital coupling. Finally, the topic of the motions of the flux lines in YBCO is addressed, in particular by discussing some experiments based on spin-echo dephasing due to thermal excitations and in the presence of d.c. currents and pulsed magnetic fields.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
