The discovery of charge-density wave (CDW)-related effects in the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra of cuprates holds the tantalizing promise of clarifying the interactions that stabilize the electronic order. Here, we report a comprehensive RIXS study of La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) finding that CDW effects persist up to a remarkably high doping level of x = 0.21 before disappearing at x = 0.25. The inelastic excitation spectra remain essentially unchanged with doping despite crossing a topological transition in the Fermi surface. This indicates that the spectra contain little or no direct coupling to electronic excitations near the Fermi surface, rather they are dominated by the resonant cross-section for phonons and CDW-induced phonon-softening. We interpret our results in terms of a CDW that is generated by strong correlations and a phonon response that is driven by the CDW-induced modification of the lattice.

While charge density wave (CDW) instabilities are ubiquitous to superconducting cuprates, the different ordering wavevectors in various cuprate families have hampered a unified description of the CDW formation mechanism. Here we investigate the tempe
rature dependence of the low energy phonons in the canonical CDW ordered cuprate La$_{1.875}$Ba$_{0.125}$CuO$_{4}$. We discover that the phonon softening wavevector associated with CDW correlations becomes temperature dependent in the high-temperature precursor phase and changes from a wavevector of 0.238 reciprocal space units (r.l.u.) below the ordering transition temperature up to 0.3~r.l.u. at 300~K. This high-temperature behavior shows that 214-type cuprates can host CDW correlations at a similar wavevector to previously reported CDW correlations in non-214-type cuprates such as YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{6+delta}$. This indicates that cuprate CDWs may arise from the same underlying instability despite their apparently different low temperature ordering wavevectors.
To address the issues of superconducting and charge properties in high-T$_c$ cuprates, we perform a quantum Monte Carlo study of an extended three-band Emery model, which explicitly includes attractive interaction $V_{OO}$ between oxygen orbitals. In
the physically relevant parameter range, we find that $V_{OO}$ acts to strongly enhance the long-range part of d-wave pairing correlation, with a clear tendency to form long-range superconducting order in the thermodynamic limit. Simultaneously, increasing $|V_{OO}|$ renders a rapid increase of the nematic charge structure factor at most of wavevectors, especially near $textbf{q}=(0,0)$, indicating a dramatic enhancement of nematicity and charge density waves. Our findings suggest that the attraction between oxygen orbitals in high-T$_c$ cuprates is a common thread linking their superconducting and charge properties.
In underdoped cuprates, the interplay of the pseudogap, superconductivity, and charge and spin ordering can give rise to exotic quantum states, including the pair density wave (PDW), in which the superconducting (SC) order parameter is oscillatory in
space. However, the evidence for a PDW state remains inconclusive and its broader relevance to cuprate physics is an open question. To test the interlayer frustration, the crucial component of the PDW picture, we performed transport measurements on La$_{1.7}$Eu$_{0.2}$Sr$_{0.1}$CuO$_{4}$ and La$_{1.48}$Nd$_{0.4}$Sr$_{0.12}$CuO$_{4}$, cuprates with striped spin and charge orders, in perpendicular magnetic fields ($H_perp$), and also with an additional field applied parallel to CuO$_2$ layers ($H_parallel$). We detected several phenomena predicted to arise from the existence of a PDW, including an enhancement of interlayer SC phase coherence with increasing $H_parallel$. Our findings are consistent with the presence of local, PDW pairing correlations that compete with the uniform SC order at $T_{c}^{0}< T<(2-6) T_{c}^{0}$, where $T_{c}^{0}$ is the $H=0$ SC transition temperature, and become dominant at intermediate $H_perp$ as $Trightarrow 0$. These data also provide much-needed transport signatures of the PDW in the regime where superconductivity is destroyed by quantum phase fluctuations.
We investigate in underdoped cuprates possible coexistence of the superconducting (SC) order at zero momentum and pair density wave (PDW) at momentum ${bf Q}=(pi, pi)$ in the presence of a Neel order. By symmetry, the $d$-wave uniform singlet pairing
$dS_0$ can coexist with the $d$-wave triplet PDW $dT_{bf Q}$, and the $p$-wave singlet PDW $pS_{bf Q}$ can coexist with the $p$-wave uniform triplet $pT_0$. At half filling, we find the novel $pS_{bf Q}+pT_0$ state is energetically more favorable than the $dS_0+dT_{bf Q}$ state. At finite doping, however, the $dS_0+dT_{bf Q}$ state is more favorable. In both types of states, the variational triplet parameters, $dT_{bf Q}$ and $pT_0$, are of secondary significance. Our results point to a fully symmetric $mathrm{Z_2}$ quantum spin liquid with spinon Fermi surface in proximity to the Neel order at zero doping, and to intertwined $d$-wave triplet PDW fluctuations and spin moment fluctuations along with the dominant $d$-wave singlet SC at finite doping. The results are obtained by variational quantum Monte Carlo simulations.
We used resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) with and without analysis of the scattered photon polarization, to study dispersive spin excitations in the high temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O6+x over a wide range of doping levels (0.1 < x < 1
). The excitation profiles were carefully monitored as the incident photon energy was detuned from the resonant condition, and the spin excitation energy was found to be independent of detuning for all x. These findings demonstrate that the largest fraction of the spin-flip RIXS profiles in doped cuprates arises from magnetic collective modes, rather than from incoherent particle-hole excitations as recently suggested theoretically [Benjamin et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 247002(2014)]. Implications for the theoretical description of the electron system in the cuprates are discussed.
