The recent observations of superconductivity at temperatures up to 55K in compounds containing layers of iron arsenide have revealed a new class of high temperature superconductors that show striking similarities to the more familiar…
An inelastic neutron scattering study of overdoped Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta} $ (T_c = 83 K) has revealed a resonant spin excitation in the superconducting state. The mode energy is E_res=38 meV, significantly lower than in optimally doped…
Phonons in nearly optimally doped HgBa$_2$CuO$_{4+\delta}$ were studied by inelastic X-ray scattering. The dispersion of the low energy modes is well described by a shell model, while the Cu-O bond stretching mode at high energy shows…
Inelastic neutron scattering and susceptibility measurements have been performed on the optimally-doped Fe-based superconductor FeTe(0.5)Se(0.5), which has a critical temperature, Tc of 14 K. The magnetic scattering at the stripe…
In previous studies on a number of under- and overdoped high temperature superconductors, including YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{7-y} and Tl_{2}Ba_{2}CuO_{6+\delta}, the transition temperature T_c has been found to change with time in a manner which…
We study the model high-temperature superconductor HgBa2CuO4+d with electronic Raman scattering and optical ellipsometry over a wide doping range. The resonant Raman condition which enhances the scattering cross section of "two-magnon"…
Commensurate antiferromagnetic ordering has been observed in the superconducting high-$Tc$ cuprate ${\rm YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{6.5}}$ (${\rm T_{c}}$=55 K) by polarized and unpolarized elastic neutron scattering. The magnetic peak intensity…
We investigate the strain response of underdoped HgBa$_2$CuO$_{4+\delta}$ (Hg1201), by synchrotron X-ray diffraction and corresponding simulations of thermal diffuse scattering. The compression in the crystallographic $a$ direction leads to…
In order to test the recently proposed connection between the neutron resonance and the specific heat anomaly in cuprates, the experimental specific heat data on $YBa_2Cu_3O_{6.93}$ and a theoretical estimate of the single particle…
We report detailed neutron scattering studies on Ba$_2$Cu$_3$O$_4$Cl$_2$. The compound consists of two interpenetrating sublattices of Cu, labeled as Cu$_{\rm A}$ and Cu$_{\rm B}$, each of which forms a square-lattice Heisenberg…
The spin dynamics of high temperature superconductors measured by inelastic neutron scattering is reviewed. The spin susceptibility evolves a lot with increasing doping from the undoped insulating state to the overdoped metallic state. In…
This paper describes high-energy neutron inelastic scattering measurements of propagating magnetic excitations in PrBa2Cu3O6+x (x approx 0.2 and 0.93). The measurements probe the acoustic and optic modes of the antiferromagnetically-ordered…
We pursue the consequences of a theory in which the resonance peak observed in inelastic neutron scattering (INS) experiments on underdoped and optimally doped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ compounds arises from a spin-wave excitation. We find…
Magnetic excitations in Ba(Fe0.94Co0.06)2As2 are studied by polarized inelastic neutron scattering (INS) above and below the superconducting transition. In the superconducting state we find clear evidence for two resonance-like excitations.…
The specific heat $C$ of the single-layer cuprate superconductor HgBa$_2$CuO$_{4 + \delta}$ was measured in an underdoped crystal with $T_{\rm c} = 72$ K at temperatures down to $2$ K in magnetic fields up to $35$ T, a field large enough to…
Polarized-neutron diffraction experiments (PND) have revealed that the pseudogap state of the cuprates exhibits unusual intra-unit-cell (IUC) magnetism. At a qualitative level, the data indicate a moment direction that is neither…
We studied local magnetic properties of triple-CuO$_2$-layer superconductors HgBa$_2$Ca$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{8+\delta}$ with rich $^{63}$Cu isotope (underdoped $T_\mathrm{c}$ = 124 K and optimally doped $T_\mathrm{c}$ = 134 K) by $^{63}$Cu NMR…
Many physical properties of the copper oxide high temperature superconductors appear to defy the conventional (one-electron) theory of metals, and the development of new theories incorporating strong electron correlations is currently at…
We report an Eliashberg analysis of the electron dynamics in YBa_2Cu_3O_6.95. The magnetic resonance at 41 meV couples to charge carriers and defines the characteristic shape in energy of the scattering rate \tau^{-1}(T,\omega) which allows…
Inelastic neutron scattering has been used to obtain a comprehensive description of the absolute dynamical spin susceptibility $\chi'' (q,\omega)$ of the underdoped superconducting cuprate YBa_2 Cu_3 O_{6.5} ($T_c = 52 K$) over a wide range…
