Antiferromagnetic ordering in a 90 K copper oxide superconductor
Using elastic neutron scattering, we evidence a commensurate
antiferromagnetic Cu(2) order (AF) in the superconducting (SC) high-
cuprate (y=0.013, =93 K). As
in the Co-free system, the spin excitation spectrum is dominated by a magnetic
resonance peak at 41 meV but with a reduced spectral weight. The substitution
of Co thus leads to a state where AF and SC cohabit showing that the CuO
plane is a highly antiferromagnetically polarizable medium even for a sample
where T remains optimum.Comment: 3 figure
