摘要:

利用高分辨中子粉末衍射技术,在La_{2-x} Ba_xCuO_4(x = 1/8)中观察到了氧同位素(16 O/1/8 O)对低温四方相变温度T_{LTT}的负效应。相应的OIE指数α(T_{LTT})=-0.36(5)具有与针对自旋条带有序温度T_so发现的α(T_{so})= -0.57(6)相同的符号。LTT跃迁伴随着电荷有序化(CO)的事实意味着CO温度T_co也存在OIE。此外,观察到随着较重同位素的C轴的温度依赖性缩短。这些结果与模型计算相结合表明,非谐电子晶格相互作用是必不可少的所有过渡中观察到的条纹相的铜酸盐。

英文摘要:

A novel negative oxygen-isotope (16O/18O) effect (OIE) on the low-temperature tetragonal phase transition temperature T_{LTT} was observed in La_{2-x}Ba_xCuO_4 (x = 1/8) using high-resolution neutron powder diffraction. The corresponding OIE exponent alpha(T_{LTT}) = - 0.36(5) has the same sign as alpha(T_{so}) = -0.57(6) found for the spin-stripe order temperature T_so. The fact that the LTT transition is accompanied by charge ordering (CO) implies the presence of an OIE also for the CO temperature T_co. Furthermore, a temperature dependent shortening of the c-axis with the heavier isotope is observed. These results combined with model calculations demonstrate that anharmonic electron-lattice interactions are essential for all transitions observed in the stripe phase of cuprates.
