Polarized-neutron diffraction experiments (PND) have revealed that the pseudogap state of the cuprates exhibits unusual intra-unit-cell (IUC) magnetism. At a qualitative level, the data indicate a moment direction that is neither perpendicular nor parallel to the CuO2 layers, yet an accurate measurement of a structurally simple compound has been lacking. Here we report PND results with unprecedented accuracy for the IUC magnetic order in the simple-tetragonal single-CuO$_2$-layer compound HgBa2CuO$_{4+{delta}}$. At the transition temperature, we find evidence for magnetic critical scattering. Deep in the ordered state, we determine the moment direction to be 70{deg} $pm$ 10{deg} away from the normal to the CuO$_2$ layers, which rules out both purely planar loop currents and high-symmetry Dirac multipoles, the two most prominent theoretical proposals for the microscopic origin of the IUC magnetism. However, the data are consistent with Dirac multipoles of lower symmetry or, alternatively, with a particular configuration of loop currents that flow on the faces of the CuO$_6$ octahedra.

Using high-energy diffraction we show that a 4-unit-cell superstructure, q0=(1/4,0,0), along the shorter Cu-Cu bonds coexists with superconductivity in optimally doped YBCO. A complex set of anisotropic atomic displacements on neighboring CuO chain p
lanes, BaO planes, and CuO2 planes, respectively, correlated over ~3-6 unit cells gives rise to diffuse superlattice peaks. Our observations are consistent with the presence of Ortho-IV nanodomains containing these displacements.
Within the complex phase diagram of the hole-doped cuprates, seizing the nature of the mysterious pseudo-gap phase is essential to unravel the microscopic origin of high-temperature superconductivity. Below the pseudo-gap temperature $rm T^{star}$, e
vidences for intra-unit-cell orders breaking the 4-fold rotation symmetry have been provided by neutron diffraction and scanning tunneling spectroscopy. Using polarized neutron diffraction on a detwinned $rm YBa_2Cu_3O_{6.6}$ sample, we here report a distinct a-b anisotropy of the intra-unit-cell magnetic structure factor below $rm T^{star}$, highlighting that intra-unit-cell order in this material breaks the mirror symmetry of the CuO$_2$ bilayers. This is likely to originate from a crisscrossed arrangement of loop currents within the $rm CuO_2$ bilayer, resulting in a bilayer mean toroidal axis along the $rm {bf b}$ direction.
We present an inelastic neutron scattering study of the structurally simple single-layer compound HgBa$_2$CuO$_{4+delta}$ close to optimal doping ($T_c approx 96$ K). A well-defined antiferromagnetic resonance with energy $omega_r = 56$ meV ($approx
6.8 k_BT_c$) is observed below the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$. The resonance mode is energy-resolution limited and exhibits an intrinsic momentum width of about $0.2 mathrm{mathring{A}^{-1}}$, consistent with prior work on several other cuprates. However, the unusually large value of the mode energy implies a non-universal relationship between $omega_r$ and $T_c$ across different families of cuprates.
Understanding high-temperature superconductivity requires a prior knowledge of the nature of the enigmatic pseudogap metallic state, out of which the superconducting state condenses. In addition to the electronic orders involving charge degrees of fr
eedoms recently reported inside the pseudogap state, a magnetic intra-unit-cell (IUC) order was discovered in various cuprates to set in just at the pseudogap temperature, T*. In nearly optimally doped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.85}$, polarized neutron scattering measurements, carried out on two different spectrometers, reveal new features. The order is made of finite size planar domains, hardly correlated along the c-axis. At high temperature, only the out-of-plane magnetic components correlate, revealing a strong Ising anistropy, as originally predicted in the loop current model. Below T*, a correlated in-plane response develops, giving rise the apparent tilt of the magnetic moment at low temperature. The discovery of these two regimes put stringent constraints on the intrinsict nature of IUC order, tightly bound to the pseudogap physics.
Ultrahigh resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy with low-energy photons is used to study the detailed momentum dependence of the well-known nodal kink dispersion anomaly of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+{delta}. We find that the kinks location transit
ions smoothly from a maximum binding energy of about 65 meV at the node of the d-wave superconducting gap to 55 meV roughly one-third of the way to the antinode. Meanwhile, the self-energy spectrum corresponding to the kink dramatically sharpens and intensifies beyond a critical point in momentum space. We discuss the possible bosonic spectrum in energy and momentum space that can couple to the k-space dispersion of the electronic kinks.
