Abstract
The low-temperature normal-state resistivities of underdoped crystals with of 20 and 35 K were studied by suppressing the superconductivity with pulsed magnetic fields of 61 T. Both in-plane resistivity and out-of-plane resistivity are found to diverge logarithmically as . Logarithmic divergence is accompanied by a nearly constant anisotropy ratio, , suggesting an unusual three-dimensional insulator.
