We have measured the extended x-ray absorption-fine-structure (EXAFS) at the Y-K edge of YBa_2Cu_3O_x for x=6.801, 6.947, 6.968, 6.984 at T=20-300 K. Across the underdoped-overdoped transition the Y-Cu2 pairs exhibit harmonic vibrations…

In YBa2Cu3Ox, distinct features are found in the pressure dependence of the transition temperature, dTc/dp, and in DeltaCp*Tc, where DeltaCp is the jump in the specific heat at Tc: dTc/dp becomes zero when DeltaCp*Tc is maximal, whereas…

There is strong experimental evidence for substantial antiferromagnetic coupling between the CuO$_2$ planes of the bilayers in YBCO compounds. The acoustic mode of the spin excitation spectrum has been measured but the optic mode has not…

The dimpling of the CuO_2 planes (spacing between the O2,3 and Cu2 layers) in YBa_2Cu_3O_x has been measured as a function of oxygen concentration and temperature by yttrium x-ray extended-fine-structure spectroscopy (EXAFS). The relative…

Recently, charge density wave (CDW) order in the CuO$_2$ planes of underdoped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+\delta}$ was detected using resonant soft x-ray scattering. An important question remains: is the chain layer responsible for this charge…

We present a study on the high-Tc superconductor (HTSC) YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) using polarization-dependent X-ray absorption and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering. High-resolution measurements using synchrotron-radiation are compared with…

The competition between superconductivity and charge density wave (CDW) order in underdoped cuprates has now been widely reported, but the role of disorder in this competition has yet to be fully resolved. A central question is whether…

Experiments have revealed multiple quantum oscillation frequencies in underdoped high temperature superconductor $\mathrm{YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{6+\delta}}$, corresponding to approximately 10% doping, which contain $\mathrm{CuO}$ bilayers in the…

We report on the depression of the superconducting critical temperature of ultra thin YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) layers, when their thickness is reduced in presence of La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (LCMO) magnetic layers in [LCMO (15 u.c.)/ YBCO(N u.c.)]…

Members of the high Tc cuprate family (with defect free $CuO_2$ planes) are suggested to have an `{\em Intrinsic single layer superconducting} Tc', larger than the experimentally observed Tc, at a given hole concentration. This difference…

The superconducting transition temperature, Tc, of bilayers comprising underdoped La2-xSrxCuO4 films capped by a thin heavily overdoped metallic La1.65Sr0.35CuO4 layer, is found to increase with respect to Tc of the bare underdoped films.…

The interrelation between the epitaxial strain and oxygen deficiency in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3-{\delta} thin films was studied in terms of structural and functional properties. The films with a thickness of 1000{\AA} were prepared using a PLD…

The interplay between the quasi 1-dimensional CuO-chains and the 2-dimensional CuO2 planes of YBa2Cu3O6+x (YBCO) has been in focus for a long time. Although the CuO-chains are known to be important as charge reservoirs that enable…

YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ (YBCO) has favorable macroscopic superconducting properties of $T_\mathrm{c}$ up to 93 K and $H_{c2}$ up to 150 T. However, its nanoscale electronic structure remains mysterious because bulk-like electronic…

$\mathrm{La_{1.85}Sr_{0.15}CuO_4}$/$\mathrm{La_2CuO_4}$ (LSCO15/LCO) bilayers with a precisely controlled thickness of N unit cells (UCs) of the former and M UCs of the latter ([LSCO15\_N/LCO\_M]) were grown on (001)-oriented {\slao} (SLAO)…

We report a comprehensive study of the uniaxial stress response of charge-density-wave (CDW) correlations in detwinned single crystals of the high temperature superconductor YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ (YBCO$_{6+x}$) with $0.40 \leq x \leq 0.93$…

Electron irradiation has been used to introduce point defects in a controlled way in the CuO2 planes of underdoped and optimally doped YBCO. This technique allows us to perform very accurate measurements of Tc and of the residual…

At interfaces between complex oxides it is possible to generate electronic systems with unusual electronic properties, which are not present in the isolated oxides. One important example is the appearance of superconductivity at the…

Recent developments in high-temperature superconductivity highlight a generic tendency of the cuprates to develop competing electronic (charge) supermodulations. While coupled to the lattice and showing different characteristics in…

We discuss the static deformations of the doped CuO_2 lattices in YBa_2Cu_3O_x. Intrinsic lattice effects driven by the strong correlations of the electron system are separated from extrinsic chemical and bandstructure effects. c-axis…
