Journal ArticleDOI
Antisymmetric exchange and its influence on the magnetic structure and conductivity of La 2 Cu O 4
Tineke Thio,T. R. Thurston,N. W. Preyer,P. J. Picone,Marc Kastner,Hans P. Jenssen,D. R. Gabbe,Changchen Chen,Robert J. Birgeneau,Amnon Aharony +9 more
TL;DR: Enhancement of the conductivity in the ferromagnetic phase demonstrates a strong connection between the magnetism and charge transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Static and dynamic spin correlations in pure and doped La 2 CuO 4
Yasuo Endoh,Kohta Yamada,Robert J. Birgeneau,D. R. Gabbe,Hans P. Jenssen,Marc Kastner,C. J. Peters,P. J. Picone,T. R. Thurston,John M. Tranquada,Gen Shirane,Yoshikazu Hidaka,Migaku Oda,Youichi Enomoto,Motofumi Suzuki,Toshiaki Murakami +15 more
TL;DR: This large energy scale for the spin fluctuations gives credence to models of the superconductivity in doped La/sub 2/CuO/sub 4/ in which the pairing is magnetic in origin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic neutron scattering study of single-crystal cupric oxide
TL;DR: Among Cu/sup 2+/ compounds, cupric oxide (CuO) has unusual magnetic properties, some of which are shared by the superconducting copper oxides, and neutron scattering experiments on a CuO single crystal have been performed to study these properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antiferromangetic spin correlations in insulating, metallic, and superconducting La2-xSrx
Robert J. Birgeneau,D. R. Gabbe,Hans P. Jenssen,Marc Kastner,P. J. Picone,T. R. Thurston,Gen Shirane,Y. Endoh,M. Sato,K. Yamada,Yoshikazu Hidaka,Migaku Oda,Youichi Enomoto,Motofumi Suzuki,Toshiaki Murakami +14 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the Neel state is destroyed by the doping and spin-spin correlation lenght xi is quite short, varying from approx.35 to approx.8 A as x varies between 0.02 and 0.18; the local order is the same as in pure La/sub 2/CuO/sub 4/.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soft-phonon behavior and transport in single-crystal La 2 CuO 4
Robert J. Birgeneau,Changchen Chen,D. R. Gabbe,H. P. Jenssen,Marc Kastner,C. J. Peters,P. J. Picone,Tineke Thio,T. R. Thurston,Harry L. Tuller,J. D. Axe,Peter Böni,Gen Shirane +12 more
TL;DR: The pure and lightly-doped single crystals show hopping conductivity, indicating that the electronic states at the Fermi energy are localized.
