High magnetic field ultrasound study of spin freezing in La1.88Sr0.12CuO4

Abstract: High-Tc cuprate superconductors host spin, charge and lattice instabilities. In particular, in the antiferromagnetic glass phase, over a large doping range, lanthanum based cuprates display a glass-like spin freezing with antiferromagnetic correlations. Previously, sound velocity anomalies in La2−xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) for hole doping p ≥ 0.145 were reported and interpreted as arising from a coupling of the lattice to the magnetic glass [Frachet, Vinograd et al., Nat. Phys. 16, 1064-1068]. Here we report both sound v… Show more

“…Next, we briefly discuss our structural results in the context of nematicity, largely associated with the growth of spin and charge-density-wave correlations upon cooling [46][47][48][49][50] in the cuprates. In the unstrained orthorhombic unit cell the buckling angles along a and b axes differ only slightly.…”

“…Arrows mark the decrease associated with vortex lattice depinning at B dp . Note that p = 0.10 and 0.11 data are at 4.2 K, all the others are at 1.5 K. The VL contribution appears on top of a background sound velocity, which is associated with the field-dependent electronic properties of LSCO such as superconductivity and magnetism [29,30]. This nonvortex background is significant for p ≤ 0.145 but diminishes smoothly with doping.…”

“…These two effects may conspire to give rise to the broad maximum when T ∼ ∆/k B , which itself is fielddependent. Comparison of NMR relaxation rates with other low-frequency dynamic probes, such as ultrasound attenuation, can be fruitful [38], however there is no report of ultrasound experiments with fields applied in the plane to allow direct comparison.…”
