Short-range charge-density wave correlations are ubiquitous in underdoped cuprates. They are largely confined to the copper-oxygen planes and typically oscillate out of phase from one unit cell to the next in the c-direction. Recently, it…
We have investigated the collective modes of unconventional charge and spin density waves (UCDW, USDW) in quasi-one dimensional systems in random phase approximation. The density correlator regains its normal state form due to the phase…
