我们提出,在化学计量比高的$T_c$超导体Ortho-II YBa $_2$ Cu $_3$ O $_{6.5}$中,Cu链上的NMR谱线形状是由O空位附近的Cu上的感应磁化决定的,这是由于链中强的磁相关.对具有最近邻d波对相互作用的耦合链-平面哈伯德模型的非限制性Hartree-Fock计算表明,低温下NMR谱线的展宽与无序诱导磁化相一致.此外,我们给出了一个可能的解释,在高温下观察到的反常双峰线形状的不均匀的Cu价在链。链和CuO平面之间的接近诱导平面Cu上的各向异性磁化,并根据链线的平面NMR线加宽,与实验一致。我们讨论了欠掺杂YBCO的其他实验模型的影响。
英文摘要:
We propose that the NMR line shape on the chain Cu in the stoichiometric high-$T_c$ superconductor Ortho-II YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.5}$ is determined by the magnetization induced on Cu near O vacancies, due to strong magnetic correlations in the chains. An unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculation of a coupled chain-plane Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor d-wave pairing interaction shows that the broadening of NMR lines is consistent with disorder-induced magnetization at low temperatures. In addition, we give a possible explanation of the anomalous bimodal line shape observed at high temperatures in terms of nonuniform Cu valence in the chains. The proximity between chains and CuO plane induces anisotropic magnetization on the planar Cu, and broadens the plane NMR lines in accordance with that of the chain lines, in agreement with experiment. We discuss implications of the model for other experiments on underdoped YBCO.
Intrinsic Hall response of the CuO2 planes in a chain-plane-composite system of YBa2Cu3Oy
测量了YBa $_2$ Cu $_3$ O $_y$非孪晶单晶在宽掺杂范围内的霍尔系数。我们表明,霍尔电导率和霍尔角的{ \it CuO $_2$平面}在YBa $_2$ Cu $_3$ O $_y$可以从可测量的输运性质提取,而不管导电的Cu-O链,也不是在平面各向异性的CuO $_2$平面。本分析使我们能够讨论真正的霍尔效应在CuO $_2$平面单独在YBa $_2$ Cu $_3$ O $_y$没有任何并发症,由于Cu-O链。
We show that 63Cu NMR spectra place strong constraints on both the nature and the concentration of oxygen defects in ortho-II YBa2Cu3Oy. Systematic deviation from ideal ortho-II order is revealed by the presence of inequivalent Cu sites in either full or empty chains. The results can be explained by two kinds of defects: oxygen clustering into additional chains, or fragments thereof, most likely present at all concentrations (6.4<y<6.6) and oxygen vacancies randomly distributed in the full chains for y<6.50 only. Furthermore, the remarkable reproducibility of the spectra in different samples w…
Evidence for Static Magnetism in the Vortex Cores of Ortho-II YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.50}$
报道了欠掺杂$_2$ O $_{6+x}$涡旋芯中存在静态交变磁场的证据。在$H = 1$ T和$H = 4$ T的外加磁场中测量了YBa $_2$ Cu $_3$ O $_{6.50}$涡旋态的内部磁场分布,发现了高场尾部磁场分布的一个特征,这一特征在最佳掺杂的YBa $_2$ Cu $_3$ O $_{6.95}$中不存在,并且很好地符合涡旋核中具有静态磁场的模型。场的大小估计为18(2)G,并在$T = 10$ K以上减小。我们在现有理论的背景下讨论了额外的涡核磁性的可能起源。
Theory of optical conductivity in detwinned YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{y}$
从理论上研究了$_2$ O $_3$的链状和面内光学电导。我们阐述了链是超导的$y>6.67$,而绝缘的$y<6.67$由于平面链耦合和反铁磁序之间的竞争,对应于一个超导体-绝缘体转变。超导态的面内谱在低频处出现一个新的峰,而正常态的面内谱在低频处消失,这也是由于平面和链之间的耦合。我们的设想令人满意地解释了最近的实验。

The organization of dopants in high temperature superconductors provides complex topological geometries that controls superconducting properties. This makes the study of dopants spatial distribution of fundamental importance. The mobile oxygen ions, y, in the CuO2 plane of YBa2Cu3O6+y (0.33<y<0.67) form ordered chains which greatly affect the transport properties of the material. Here we visualize and characterize the 2D spatial organization of these oxygen chains using scanning micro X-ray diffraction measurements in transmission mode on a thin single crystal slab with y=0.33 (Tc=7 K) near th…
Electronic Structure near Impurities in the Chains of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$
本文研究了$_2$ O $_3$一维链中杂质附近的电子结构。假设链超导低于$T_c$由于邻近耦合,我们表明,只有磁性杂质诱导共振态的局域态密度。它的空间结构反映了链式超导的粒子-空穴性质,从而将其与其他对称性破缺相区分开来。对于足够大的散射强度,或由于第二杂质产生的干涉效应,链经历量子相变到极化状态。
Coherence and superconductivity in coupled one-dimensional chains: a case study of YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{y}$
本文报道了高$T_{c}$超导体YBa $_{2}$ Cu $_{3}$ O $_{y}$中Cu-O链在跨越$% y=6.28-6.75$掺杂范围内的红外响应。我们发现在中红外频率的幂律缩放与Tomonaga-Luttinger液体的预测一致的证据,从而支持链中一维运输的概念。我们分析了耦合到CuO $_{2}$平面在建立无序链片段的金属性和超导电性的作用。
NMR evidence for Friedel-like oscillations in the CuO chains of ortho-II YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.5}$
对去孪晶的Ortho-II型$_2$ O $_{6.5}$(YBCO 6.5)单晶的CuO链的核磁共振(NMR)测量揭示了不寻常的和显著的性质。链Cu共振显着加宽,但逐渐,从室温冷却。其线形及其温度依赖性与常规自旋/电荷密度波(S/CDW)相变的线形及其温度依赖性显著不同。相反,线加宽归因于小振幅静态自旋和电荷密度振荡,其具有与有限长度链的末端连接的空间变化的振幅。这种CuO链现象的影响也清楚地表现在平面Cu NMR中。
The interplay between the quasi 1-dimensional CuO-chains and the 2-dimensional CuO2 planes of YBa2Cu3O6+x (YBCO) has been in focus for a long time. Although the CuO-chains are known to be important as charge reservoirs that enable superconductivity for a range of oxygen doping levels in YBCO, the understanding of the dynamics of its temperature-driven metal-superconductor transition (MST) remains a challenge. We present a combined study using x-ray absorption spectroscopy and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) revealing how a reconstruction of the apical O(4)-derived interplanar orbita…
Proximity Effects and Quantum Dissipation in the Chains of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}
我们认为,最近的扫描隧道显微镜,角分辨光电子能谱和红外光谱实验上的CuO链的YBa $_2$铜$_3$ O $_{6+x}$一致的解释内的相干链平面和非相干链间耦合的相互作用的邻近模型的结果。我们表明,CuO $_2$平面作为欧姆热浴的电子自由度的链,诱导大量的量子耗散。在平面$T_c$之下,链中的电荷激发获得了一个普适的超导能隙,其相位和大小与动量有关。我们预测,这种差距的大小随链中的空穴浓度的非单调变化。

$_2$ O $_6.5$的Ortho-II相的特征在于空Cu和填充Cu-O b轴的周期性交替使晶胞在a方向上加倍。在完整的链中的额外的氧产生了一个有吸引力的潜力,在飞机上的孔。在新的布里渊区边界$k_x=\pm pi/2$,我们估计从LDA计算的间隙开口的平面带分裂成两个。使用一个平面模型,它对待的d-波超导平均场近似,我们表明,带间跃迁产生强烈的各向异性特征的光学电导率控制的区域在k空间接近($π/2,π/2$)。该特征的边缘位置给出了该区域准粒子谱随温度变化的信息。双层分裂将显示为双边形状。
We perform a numerical simulation of a three-band Hubbard model with two CuO$_2$ planes and a single CuO chain layer for YBCO cuprates. The spin-fluctuation mediated pairing interaction is computed within the multiband random-phase approximation, and its pairing eigenvalues and eigenfunctions are solved as a function of chain state filling factor $n_c$. We find that for the intrinsic value of $n_c$ in YBCO samples, one obtains the usual $d$-wave pairing symmetry. However, if we dope the chain layers with holes, while keeping the plane states doping fixed, the leading pairing symmetry solution …
Magnetic field-dependence of the basal-plane superconducting anisotropy in YBa2Cu4O8 from small-angle neutron scattering measurements of the vortex lattice
我们报道了欠掺杂YBa $_{2}$ Cu $_{4}$ O $_{8}$(Y 124)超流密度的基面各向异性的研究,显示了CuO $_{2}$面和完全占据的CuO链的影响.从涡旋晶格的小角中子散射测量,我们可以推断温度($T$)范围$T=$ 1.5 K至$T_{\rm c}$和磁感应强度$B$从0.1 T至6 T的超导(SC)性质。我们发现,沿\textbf{a}的超流密度有一个简单的$d$波T-依赖。然而,沿着\textbf{b}(链方向),超流密度随着$T$和场的增加而下降得更快。这强烈地暗示了邻近效应诱导的CuO链中的超导电性的抑制。此外,我们的研究结果不支持一个共同的框架,低场平面SC响应在Y 124和相关的YBa $_{2}$ Cu $_{3}$ O $_{7}$,也表明,任何磁场诱导的电荷密度波秩序在Y 124只存在于6 T以上的领域。
Distinct Charge Orders in the Planes and Chains of Ortho-III-Ordered YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+δ}$ Superconductors Identified by Resonant Elastic X-ray Scattering
最近,电荷密度波(CDW)秩序的CuO $_2$平面欠掺杂的YBa $_2$ Cu $_3$ O $_{6+δ}$检测使用共振软X射线散射。一个重要的问题仍然存在:是链层负责这种电荷排序?在这里,我们探讨的共振散射强度的能量和偏振依赖性的解孪晶样品的YBa $_2$铜$_3$ O $_{6.75}$与邻-III氧在链层中的顺序。我们表明,邻-III CDW秩序的链是不同的CDW秩序的飞机。邻位-III结构产生相称的超晶格反射在$Q$ =[0.33 0 $L$ ],其能量和偏振依赖性同意与预期的氧有序和空间调制的Cu价在链中。在[0.30 0 $L$ ]和[0 0.30 $L$ ]从在平面中的CDW顺序的不相称的峰被示出是不同的$Q$以及它们的温度,能量和偏振依赖性,因此是无关的链层的结构。此外,在平面中的CDW顺序的能量依赖性被示出从Cu 2 $p$到3 $d_{x^2-y^2}$过渡的能量的空间调制的结果,类似于条纹有序的214铜酸盐。
The crystal structure and electrical resistivity of YBa$_2$Cu$_4$O$_8$ (Y124) were studied under high pressure up to 18 GPa using diamond-anvil cells, respectively, in order to clarify its conduction mechanism. Y124 causes the first-order phase-transition into the orthorhombic Immm at pressure around 11 GPa. The high-pressure phase (HPP) also shows the superconductivity, while the manner of temperature dependence of electrical resistance and the pressure dependence of transition temperature, Tc, drastically change above 11 GPa. The CuO$_2$ plane persists in HPP but the CuO double chains collap…
The electron dynamics in the CuO chains has been elusive in Y-Ba-Cu-O cuprate systems by means of standard angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES); cleaved sample exhibits areas terminated by both CuO-chain or BaO layers, and the size of a typical beam results in ARPES signals that are superposed from both terminations. Here, we employ spatially-resolved ARPES with submicrometric beam (nano-ARPES) to reveal the surface-termination-dependent electronic structures of the double CuO chains in YBa$_2$Cu$_4$O$_8$. We present the first observation of sharp metallic dispersions and Fermi su…
We have discovered two novel types of planar defects that appear in heteroepitaxial YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ (YBCO123) thin films, grown by pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) either with or without a La$_{2/3}$Ca$_{1/3}$MnO$_3$ (LCMO) overlayer, using the combination of high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) imaging and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) mapping for unambiguous identification. These planar lattice defects are based on the intergrowth of either a BaO plane between two CuO chains or multiple Y-O layers between two CuO$_2$ planes, resu…
Evidence for a pseudogap in underdoped $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+δ}$ and $YBa_2Cu_3O_{6.50}$ from in-plane optical conductivity measurements
欠掺杂Bi $_{2}$ Sr $_{2}$ CaCu $_{2}$ O $_{8+δ}$(Bi-2212)和ortho Ⅱ YBa $_{2}$ Cu $_{3}$ O $_{6.5}$的面内光学自能数据的实部包含了关于赝能隙的新的重要信息。使用理论模型的方法,我们发现,在赝能隙$Δ_{pg}$以下的态密度损失伴随着一个堆积以上的能量。的堆积,随着一个尖锐的模式在玻色子光谱函数导致一个不寻常的快速增加的光散射率和一个典型的倾斜的峰值在实部的光学自能。这些特征在最佳掺杂和过掺杂样品中没有发现,并且代表了迄今为止在面内光学电导率中的赝隙开口的最清晰的签名。
Anisotropic microwave conductivity of cuprate superconductors in the presence of CuO chain induced impurities
在动能驱动的超导机制下,研究了邻位Ⅱ型$_2$的微波电导各向异性.邻位-Ⅱ $_2$ $_3$ O $_{6.50}$的特征在于填充和空$\hat{b}$轴CuO链的周期性交替。考虑CuO链诱导的扩展各向异性杂质散射,基于准粒子激发和散射过程的节块近似,再现了邻位Ⅱ型$_2$微波电导各向异性的主要特征,包括$\hat{a}$轴和$\hat{b}$轴微波电导的能量和温度依赖性的强度和线形.我们的研究结果也证实了$\hat{b}$轴CuO链诱导杂质是各向异性的主要来源。
The complex phenomenology of shot quenched YBa2Cu3O6.5 with Tc=100K and 200K levels is compared with laser pulsed analogs with an eye on explaining the presumed Tc=552K of the latter. Shot quenching can produce metastable states with pronounced increases in plane metric and cell volume, accompanied by a rough doubling of Tc to a 100K level of an orthorhombic with 3-fold O coordinated chain Cu (O3 type). These states decay over a non-superconducting transition range to the conventional Tc=50K level of O24. We consider the plane expanded laser pulsed materials to contain aspects of O42 plane n-d…
Cuprate superconductors still hold many open questions, in particular concerning their normal state properties, including the role of charge ordering. Nuclear magnetic resonance on $^{63,65}$Cu and $^{17}$O in the CuO$_2$ plane is a very sensitive bulk probe of charge variations, but not properly understood. Since early NMR, the oxygen satellite line splittings in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+y}$ were attributed to the orthorhombic distortion, while they could also be due to charge ordering. We employ high pressure NMR on YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.9}$ hoping that charge order would respond to pressure differen…
The importance of charge reservoir layers for supplying holes to the CuO$_2$ planes of cuprate superconductors has long been recognized. Less attention has been paid to the screening of the charge transfer by the intervening ionic layers. We address this issue in the case of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$, where CuO chains supply the holes for the planes. We present a simple dielectric-screening model that gives a linear correlation between the relative displacements of ions along the $c$ axis, determined by neutron powder diffraction, and the hole density of the planes. Applying this model to the tem…
We study the temperature dependence of the low energy phonons in the $(H, 0, L)$ reciprocal plane of the highly ordered ortho-II YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.55}$ cuprate high temperature superconductor by means of high-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering. Anomalies associated with the emergence of long-range charge density wave (CDW) fluctuations are observed, and are qualitatively similar to those previously observed in the $(0, K, L)$ plane. This confirms the unconventional nature of this bi-dimensional CDW, which is not soft-phonon driven. With the support of first principles calculations, the sym…
Zigzag Filamentary Theory of Broken Symmetry of Neutron and Infrared Vibronic Spectra of YBa2Cu3O(6+x)
丝状高温超导理论(英语:Filamentary high temperature superconductance,HTSC)与连续高温超导理论有着根本的不同,因为它强调的是自组织的、离散的掺杂网络,并且没有进行有效介质近似(英语:Effective medium approximation,EMA)。分析中子和红外(特别是与c轴偏振)振动光谱,主要是YBa_2Cu_3O(6+x),在超导框架内,表明所观察到的振动异常附近400 cm-1(50 meV)与曲线超导路径。这些路径穿过铜酸盐链和平面以及BaO层中的共振隧穿中心。分析和数据证实了早期的cu 〇 2平面中包含3-4 nm的铁弹域的纳米结构模型;正是这些纳米结构域负责电子和电子振动性质的离散玻璃性质。中子和光子散射的电子振动能量和振子强度的化学趋势在连续模型中是异常的,很容易由非连续模型解释。
