Magnetotransport study of the charged stripes in high-Tc cuprates

چکیده
We present a study of the in-plane and out-of-plane magnetoresistance (MR) in heavily-underdoped, antiferromagnetic YBa2Cu3O6+x, which reveals a variety of striking features. The in-plane MR demonstrates a “d-wave”-like anisotropy upon rotating the magnetic field H within the ab plane. With decreasing temperature below 20-25 K, the system acquires memory: exposing a crystal to the magnetic field results in a persistent in-plane resistivity anisotropy. The overall features can be explained by assuming that the CuO2 planes contain a developed array of stripes accommodating the doped holes, and that the MR is associated with the field-induced topological ordering of the stripes.

The complete scenario of high-Tc superconductivity based on experimental data from electron-tunneling spectroscopy on underdoped, overdoped and Ni-doped Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x single crystals using a break-junction technique is presented. There are two different types of superconductivity in cuprates: superconductivity due to pairing of spinons on charged stripes and magnetic superconductivity mediate...

We use Ni and Zn impurities doped into Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x (Bi2212) to test the MS (Magnetic polaron Spinon) model proposed earlier. We present electron-tunneling spectroscopy of pure, Niand Zn-doped Bi2212 single crystals below Tc using a break-junction technique. We show that magnetic (Ni) and nonmagnetic (Zn) impurities doped into CuO2 planes affect both the Tc and the density of states in Bi221...
متن کاملNote on the magnetotransport in the normal state of high-Tc cuprates
Theories of the magnetotransport, based on the quasipartricle of the Fermiliquid, in the normal state of high-Tc cuprate superconductors, are critically examined and the necessity of the collective transport theory beyond the quasiparticle is discussed.
متن کاملStripes, Electron-Like and Polaron-Like Carriers, and High-Tc in the Cuprates
Received 4 November 1998 Both “large-U” and “small-U” orbitals are used to study the electronic structure of the high-Tc cuprates. A striped structure with three types of carriers are induced, polaron-like “stripons” which carry charge, “quasielectrons” which carry both charge and spin, and “svivons” which carry spin and lattice distortion. Anomalous physical properties of the cuprates are deri...
متن کاملEffect of nonmagnetic impurities on stripes in high-Tc cuprates
We perform the numerically exact diagonalization study of the t-J model with nonmagnetic impurities to clarify the relation between Zn impurities and the stripes. By examining the hole-hole correlation function for a two-hole √ 18× √ 18 cluster with a single impurity, we find that the impurity has a tendency to stabilize vertical charge stripes. This tendency is caused by the gain of the kineti...
