We have measured the normal-state Hall effect on single crystals of YBa[sub 2]Cu[sub 3[minus][ital x]]Fe[sub [ital x]]O[sub 7[minus][delta]] with the magnetic field perpendicular to the [ital ab] plane and the current in the [ital ab] plane. The Hall coefficient is positive for all crystals (0[le][ital x][le]0.20) over the entire temperature range of our measurement ([ital T][sub [ital c]][le][ital T][le]300 K). A strong temperature dependence of the Hall coefficient was also observed. We show that the Hall angle in the normal-state follows the relation cot FTHETA[sub H]=AT[sup 2]+B, which is in agreement with Anderson's prediction for the two-dimensional Luttinger liquid.
