Disappearance of antiferromagnetic spin excitations in overdoped La2-xSrxCuO4

Magnetic excitations for energies up to approximately 100 meV are studied for overdoped La(2-x)Sr(x)CuO(4) with x=0.25 and 0.30, using time-of-flight neutron spectroscopy. Comparison of spectra integrated over the width of an antiferromagnetic Brillouin zone demonstrates that the magnetic scattering at intermediate energies, 20 相似文献   

Weak magnetic order in the normal state of the high-Tc superconductor La2-xSrxCuO4

We report magnetization measurements in the normal state of the high transition temperature (high-Tc) superconductor La2-xSrxCuO4. A magnetic order in the form of hysteresis in the low-field magnetization is observed at temperatures well above Tc. The doping (x) dependence of the onset and strength of this order follows Tc(x) and falls within the pseudogap regime.     

Phase diagram of La2-xSrxCuO4 probed in the infared: imprints of charge stripe excitations

While there is increasing evidence for antiferromagnetic (AF) ordering in the Cu-O planes of high-T(c) superconductors, either static or fluctuating, there is no direct evidence so far for the charge stripes that should separate the AF domains.

Spontaneous strain in high-temperature superconductor La1.85Sr0.15CuO4

The lattice parameters of La_1.85Sr_0.15CuO₄ were measured by an x-ray Rietveld method between 15 K and room temperature. A change in a lattice parameter could be detected at superconducting phase transition. It is pointed out, for the first time, that the change can be attributed to a spontaneous strain in the superconducting phase caused by coupling between a superconducting order parameter and the strain.

Dynamical properties of charged stripes in La2-xSrxCuO4

Inelastic light-scattering spectra of underdoped La2-xSrxCuO4 single crystals are presented which provide direct evidence of the formation of quasi-one-dimensional charged structures in the two-dimensional CuO2 planes. The stripes manifest themselves in a Drude-like peak at low energies and temperatures. The selection rules allow us to determine the orientation to be along the diagonals at x=0.02 and along the principal axes at x=0.10. The electron-lattice interaction determines the correlation length which turns out to be larger in compound classes with lower superconducting transition temperatures. Temperature is the only scale of the response at different doping levels demonstrating the importance of quantum critical behavior.
