Abstract

Since carrier doping of two-leg spin ladders can theoretically induce a superconductive state, investigation of such systems is of great use in the study of superconductivity. In this paper, we report the successful creation of a non-magnetic impurity doped into a two-leg molecular spin ladder and the characterization of its magnetic properties.
