We report the results a comprehensive study of charge density wave (CDW) correlations in untwinned YBCO6+x single crystals with 0.4<x<0.99 using Cu-L3 edge resonant x-ray scattering (RXS). Evidence of CDW formation is found for 0.45<x<0.93,…
We study scattering from potentials that rise monotonically on one side; this is generally avoided. We report that resonant states are absent in such potentials when they are smooth and single-piece having less than three real turning…
