Electronic spin susceptibilities and superconductivity in HgBa$_{2}$CuO$_{4+delta}$ from nuclear magnetic resonance


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments on single crystals of HgBa$_{2}$CuO$_{4+delta}$ are presented that identify two distinct temperature-dependent spin susceptibilities: one is due to a spin component that is temperature-dependent above the critical temperature for superconductivity ($T_{rm c}$) and reflects pseudogap behavior; the other is Fermi-liquid-like in that it is temperature independent above $T_{rm c}$ and vanishes rapidly below $T_{rm c}$. In addition, we demonstrate the existence of a third, hitherto undetected spin susceptibility: it is temperature independent at higher temperatures, vanishes at lower temperatures (below $T_0 eq T_{rm c}$), and changes sign near optimal doping. This susceptibility either arises from the coupling between the two spin components, or it could be given by a distinct third spin component.
