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 Ortho-II phase of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_6.5$ is characterized by a periodic alternation of empty Cu and filled Cu-O b-axis doubling the unit cell in the a direction. The extra oxygen in the full chains gives rise to an attractive potential…
Static charge-density wave (CDW) and spin-density wave (SDW) order has been convincingly observed in La-based cuprates for some time. However, more recently it has been suggested by quantum oscillation, transport and thermodynamic…
Pulsed NQR at the frequencies of 28-33 MHz has been used to study copper NQR spectra in YBa{2}Cu{3}O{7}, TmBa{2}Cu{3}O{7} and Y{0.9}Pr{0.1}Ba{2}Cu{3}O{7} compounds at temperatures of 4.2-200K. Quantitative analysis of the spectra has shown…
We present a neutron triple-axis and resonant spin-echo spectroscopy study of the spin correlations in untwinned YBCO crystals with x= 0.3, 0.35, and 0.45 as a function of temperature and magnetic field. As the temperature T approaches 0,…
Single crystalline YBa$_{\text{2}}$Cu$_{\text{3}}$O$_{\text{7}-\delta}$ (YBCO) thin films were grown by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) in order to probe the oxygen deficiency $\delta$ using a mono-energetic positron beam. The sample set…
Pulsed neutron spectroscopy is used to make absolute measurements of the dynamic magnetic susceptibility of insulating YBa2Cu3O6.15. Acoustic and optical modes, derived from in- and out-of-phase oscillation of spins in adjacent CuO2 planes,…
A self-consistent model is developed for the surface and bulk states of thin Y_{1-y}Ca_yBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta} (YCBCO) films. The dispersions of the chain and plane layers are modelled by tight-binding bands, and the electronic structure is…
X-ray diffraction measurements show that the high-temperature superconductor YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.54}$, with ortho-II oxygen order, has charge density wave order (CDW) in the absence of an applied magnetic field. The dominant wavevector of…
We probe the short-range pinning properties with the application of microwave currents at very high driving frequencies (47.7 GHz) on YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ films with and without sub-micrometer BaZrO$_3$ inclusions. We explore the…
The optical properties the high-temperature superconductor La{2-x}Ba{x}CuO{4} have been measured over a wide frequency and temperature range for light polarized in the a-b planes and along the c axis. Three different Ba concentrations have…
Motivated by the recent synthesis of Ba$_2$CuO$_{3+\delta}$ (BCO), a high temperature superconducting cuprate with putative $d_{3z^2-r^2}$ ground state symmetry, we investigated its electronic structure by means of Cu $L_3$ x-ray absorption…
Heteroepitaxially grown bilayers of ferromagnetic La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$ (LCMO) on top of superconducting YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_7$ (YBCO) thin films were investigated by focusing on electric transport properties as well as on magnetism and…
The a-axis optical properties of a detwinned single crystal of YBa_2Cu_3O_6.50 in the ortho II phase (Ortho II Y123, T_c= 59 K) were determined from reflectance data over a wide frequency range (70 - 42 000 cm^-1) for nine temperature…
We report direct evidence of charge/orbital ordering of low energy electronic states of $Cu$ in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ ortho-II phase in both the $CuO_3$ chain and the CuO$_2$ plane. Huge enhancement of the $({1/2},0,0)$ superstructure…
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…
Systematic microwave surface impedance measurements of YBCO single crystals grown in $BaZrO_3$ crucibles reveal new properties that are not directly seen in similar measurements of other YBCO samples. Two key observations obtained from…
Optimally doped YBCO (YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7}$) has a high critical temperature, at 92 K. It is largely believed that Cooper pairs form in YBCO and other cuprates because of spin fluctuations, the issue and the detailed mechanism is far…
Muon spin rotation ({\mu}+SR) measurements of square-root second moments of local magnetic fields {\sigma} in superconducting mixed states, as published for oriented crystals and powder samples of YBa2Cu3O7-{\delta} ({\delta} {\approx}…
All underdoped high-temperature cuprate superconductors appear to exhibit charge density wave (CDW) order, but both the underlying symmetry breaking and the origin of the CDW remain unclear. We use X-ray diffraction to determine the…
