The dualism between superconductivity and charge/spin modulations (the so-called stripes) dominates the phase diagram of many strongly-correlated systems. A prominent example is given by the Hubbard model, where these phases compete and…
Neutron scattering experiments were performed on the undoped and hole-doped Ca$_{2+x}$Y$_{2-x}$Cu$_5$O$_{10}$, which consists of ferromagnetic edge-sharing CuO$_2$ chains. It was previously reported that in the undoped…
Band calculations for the hole doped La$_2$CuO$_4$ system show that artificial periodicities of Ba dopants can give the material different properties than from a uniform distribution of dopants. A periodicity within the planes make static…

Electronic charges introduced in copper-oxide planes generate high-transition temperature superconductivity but, under special circumstances, they can also order into filaments called stripes. Whether an underlying tendency of charges to…
Quasi-two dimensional quantum magnetism is clearly highly correlated with superconducting ground states in cuprate-based High T$_c$ superconductivity. Three dimensional, commensurate long range magnetic order in La$_2$CuO$_4$ quickly…

The hypothesis that holes doped into high-Tc cuprate superconductors organize themselves in two-dimensional (2D) array of diagonal stripes is discussed, and, on the basis of this hypothesis, a new microscopic model of superconductivity is…
The distribution of electrons and holes in the CuO$_2$ plane of the high-temperature superconducting cuprates is determined with nuclear magnetic resonance through the quadrupole splittings of $^{17}$O and $^{63}$Cu. Based on new data for…

It is suggested that recent experiments provide evidence for modulations along the charged stripes in the striped phase of the cuprates. Furthermore, 1/8 doping is special because it is associated with a crossover: for lower doping the…
The understanding of the interplay between different orders in a solid is a key challenge in highly correlated electronic systems. In real systems this is even more difficult since disorder can have a strong influence on the subtle balance…
Electron-doped and hole-doped superconducting cuprates exhibit a symmetric phase diagram as a function of doping. This symmetry is however only approximate. Indeed, electron-doped cuprates become superconductors only after a specific…
Many emergent phenomena appear in doped Mott insulators near the insulator-to-metal transition. In high-temperature cuprate superconductors, superconductivity arises when antiferromagnetic (AFM) order is gradually suppressed by carrier…
Doping of La_2CuO_4 and La_{1.6}Nd_{0.4}CuO_4 with Sr gives rise to holes that locate pairwise at lattice-site O atoms. Such O atoms reside as lattice defects in the CuO_2 planes if the doping level x is below a watershed value, x < x^, but…
Monte Carlo simulations applied to the Spin-Fermion model for cuprates show the existence of antiferromagnetic spin domains and charge stripes upon doping. The stripes are partially filled, with a filling of approximately 1/2 hole per site,…
