2 Strong Correlations  nickelates  manganites  cuprate superconductors  organic superconductors All show some evidence of real space order

3 Strong Correlation Fermi Liquid Interaction energy is important Real space structure –spin –charge Kinetic energy is minimized k-space structure Real space homogeneity

4 Organic Superconductors  -(ET) 2 X (TMTST) 2 PF 6 From E. Dagotto, cond-mat/0302550 From S. Lefebvre et al., Physica B 312 : 578-583 (2002)

5 Organic superconductors CDW, SDW Bond Order  BCSDW (Campbell) (Mazumdar, Clay, and Campbell, Synth. Met. 137, 1317 (2003) D. Chow et al., Phys Rev Lett 85 1698 (2000)

6 Cuprates and Nickelates Layered structure  quasi-2D system Cu-O or Ni-O Planes Other Layers Layered structure  quasi-2D system

7 Cuprates and Nickelates Dope with holes (remove spins) Topological Doping Ni: S=1 Cu: S=1/2 OxygenCu or Ni

8 Cuprates Dope with holes Superconducts at certain dopings OxygenCu or Ni T x AF SC

9 Neutron Scattering in Cuprates and Nickelates Disappearance of (π,π) peak with doping Appearance of satellite peaks AFM signal averages to zero antiphase domain walls π π δ=0 π π

10 Issues: nature – static vs. dynamic orientation – vertical vs. diagonal spacing – commensurate vs. incommensurate width – one atom vs. two... location of holes – site-centered vs. bond-centered

11 Cuprates from Almason and Maple (1991) stripes: interleaved charge and spin density (Kivelson, Emery) (Zaanen) (Castro Neto, Morais-Smith) bond-ordered charge density (Sachdev) 2D magnetic/current textures: DDW (Marsten, Chakravarty, Morr); Staggered flux (Lee); Loops (Varma)

12 Scattering Probes Energy, Momentum Phase Information?  Yes in certain cases Goals:  Phase-sensitive information from diffraction probe  Guidance for microscopic theories of superconductivity in cuprates, organics

13 Site or Bond-Centered J a > 0 (AFM) J b > 0 (AFM) JbJb JaJa JbJb J a > 0 (AFM) J b < 0 (FM) JaJa Site-centered p=3Bond-centered p=3 π π Both produce weight at (π+ π/p, π)

24 Site vs. Bond-Centered p=4 Bond-centered p=4 g(m) f(n) Site-centered p=4 g(m) f(n) π π π π

25 Elastic Peaks 2D Antiphase Domain Walls Site-centered: never weight at Bond-centered: no weight at for p=EVEN generic weight at for p=ODD The presence of weight at with incommensurate peaks at is positive evidence of a bond- centered configuration

26 Elastic Peaks 3D Antiphase Domain Walls Site-centeredBond-centered p=EVEN Vertical/Vertical -- Diagonal/Vertical -- Diagonal/Diagonal -- Bond-centered p=ODD (0, ,  ) (0, ,0) (0,0,0)

37 Site-centered velocities v velocity along the stripe direction v velocity perpendicular to the stripe direction v velocity of pure 2D antiferromagnet || AF

39 Conclusions Elastic: For both 2D and 3D antiphase domain walls, bond-centered p=ODD stripes show new peaks, forbidden for site-centered Inelastic: –Number of bands distinguishes site- or bond-centered Site: (p-1) bandsBond: (p) bands –Qualitatively different spin wave spectra Site: all bands increase with J_b Bond: lower bands independent of J_b top band ~ 2 J_b –Velocity anisotropy Bond-centered is rather isotropic over a large range of parameters Extensions: –Diagonal spin waves –Other spin textures
