  1. Spin Waves in Stripe Ordered Systems E. W. Carlson D. X. Yao D. K. Campbell

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

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

  4. Organic Superconductors q -(ET)2 X (TMTST)2PF6 From S. Lefebvre et al., Physica B 312: 578-583 (2002) From E. Dagotto, cond-mat/0302550

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

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

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

  8. Cuprates Dope with holes Superconducts at certain dopings T SC AF x Oxygen Cu or Ni

  9. δ=0 δ=0 π π π 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

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

  11. Cuprates stripes: interleaved charge and spin density (Kivelson, Emery) (Zaanen) (Castro Neto, Morais-Smith) bond-ordered charge density (Sachdev) from Almason and Maple (1991) 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. Ja Ja Jb Jb Bond-centered p=3 π Both produce weight at (π+ π/p, π) π Site or Bond-Centered Site-centered p=3 Ja > 0 (AFM) Jb> 0 (AFM) • Ja > 0 (AFM) Jb< 0 (FM)

  14. Ja Jb • Bond-centered, p=3 • Ja > 0 (AFM) Jb< 0 (FM) Model and Method Heisenberg model

  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

  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) bands Bond: (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
