We investigate the low temperature X-band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) of YBa2Cu3Ox compounds with x≅6.0 doped with Dy3+, Tb3+, and Nd3. The EPR spectra of Dy3+ and Tb3+ have been identified. The EPR of Tb3+ is used also to study the effect of suppression of high Tc superconductivity by doping with Tb3+. The EPR of Nd3+ is probably masked by the intense resonance of Cu2+. All experimental EPR results compare well with theoretical estimations. © 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.
