Substantial hole doping has been achieved in (La, Sr, Ca) 14 C u 24 O 41 compounds with Cu O 2 chain and C u 2 O 3 ladder building blocks. Holes enter the structural units with larger O/Cu ratios which are the Cu O 2 chains. The ladders remain undoped and magnetically inert due to a large spin gap. The moments in the undoped chains interact weakly, and every hole added creates a nonmagnetic Cu O 2 unit and decreases the resistivity. At the maximum hole concentration (∼ 0. 6/CuO 2) the residual moments form a singlet ground state possibly due to dimerization with an excitation gap of∼ 140 K to the triplet state.
