The temperature dependence of the resistivity and the thermoelectric power of Ln_2CuO_4 (Ln=rare earths) have been measured. The compounds of Gd, Sm, Nd, and Pr are semiconductive, while La_2CuO_4 Shows metallic conductivity. The tetragonal lattice of La_2CuO_4 Shrinks in the a axis and expands in the c axis compared to Pr_2CuO_4, in spite of the steady expansion of these lattice parameters for the compounds between Gd and Pr. The thermoelectric power of Ln_2CuO_4, but not La_2CuO_4, is negative, suggesting an electron-conducting or n-type semiconductor. The resistivity of the Ln_2CuO_4 at room temperature increases essentially with an increase in the atomic number of Ln. The plots of the thermoelectric power vs. the reciprocal temperature showed a steeper slope for the compounds of the heavier rare earths. The semiconductor-metal transition observed between La_2CuO_4 and Pr_2CuO_4 was explained in relation to the structural change (the shrinkage of the a axis and the expansion of the c axis) as being due to the change in the electron configurations of Cu^<2+>.
