We report measurements of the photoinduced change in reflectivity of an untwinned single crystal of YBa2Cu3O6.5 in the ortho II structure. The decay rate of the transient change in reflectivity is found to decrease rapidly with decreasing temperature and, below Tc, with decreasing laser intensity. We interpret the decay as a process of thermalization of antinodal quasiparticles, whose rate is determined by an inelastic scattering rate of quasiparticle pairs.

Copper NMR has been used as a local probe of the oxygen ordering in Ortho--II YBa2Cu3O6.5 crystals grown in BaZrO3 crucibles. Line assignments have been made to each of the expected crystallographically inequivalent sites. The presence of distinct an
d narrow lines for these sites as well as the lack of a line known to be associated with oxygen defects indicates that these crystals are highly stoichiometric. Our estimate of the lower limit on the chain length is consistent with that derived from X-ray diffraction measurements. In addition, we have found no evidence for static magnetic moments, in contrast to some previous results.
We describe the relation between spin fluctuations and superconductivity in a highly-ordered sample of YBaCu3O6.5 using both polarized and unpolarized neutron inelastic scattering. The spin susceptibility in the superconducting phase exhibits one-dim
ensional incommensurate modulations at low-energies, consistent with hydrodynamic stripes. With increasing energy the susceptibility curves upward to a commensurate, intense, well-defined and asymmetric resonance at 33 meV with a precipitous high-energy cutoff. In the normal phase, which we show is gapless, the resonance remains surprisingly strong and persists clearly in Q scans and energy scans. Its similar asymmetric spectral form above Tc=59 K suggests that incoherent superconducting pairing fluctuations are present in the normal state. On cooling, the resonance and the stripe modulations grow in well above Tc below a temperature that is comparable to the pseudogap temperature where suppression occurs in local and low-momentum properties. The spectral weight that accrues to the resonance is largely acquired by transfer from suppressed low-energy fluctuations. We find the resonance to be isotropically polarized, consistent with a triplet carrying ~2.6% of the total spectral weight of the Cu spins in the planes.
Magnetic field induced antiferromagnetic phase of the underdoped cuprates is studied within the t-t-J model. A magnetic field suppresses the pairing amplitude, which in turn may induce antiferromagnetism. We apply our theory to interpret the recently
reported quantum oscillations in high magnetic field in ortho-II YBa2Cu3O6.5 and propose that the total hole density abstracted from the oscillation period is reduced by 50% due to the antiferromagnetism.
The polarized Raman scattering spectra from freshly cleaved $ab$, $ac$, and $bc$ surfaces of high quality twin free YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.5}$ (Ortho-II) single crystals ($T_c$=57.5 K and $Delta T = 0.6$ K) were studied between 80 and 300 K. All eleven $
A_g$ Raman modes expected for the Ortho-II structure as well some modes of $B_{2g}$ and $B_{3g}$ symmetry were identified in close comparison with predictions of lattice dynamical calculations. The electronic scattering from the $ab$ planes is strongly anisotropic and decreases between 200 and 100 K within the temperature range of previously reported pseudogap opening. The coupling of phonons to Raman active electronic excitations manifested by asymmetric (Fano) profiles of several modes also decreases in the same range. Among the new findings that distinguish the Raman scattering of Ortho-II from that of Ortho-I phase is the unusual relationship ($alpha_{xx} approx -alpha_{yy}$) between the elements of the Raman tensor of the apex oxygen $A_g$ mode.
We show that 63Cu NMR spectra place strong constraints on both the nature and the concentration of oxygen defects in ortho-II YBa2Cu3Oy. Systematic deviation from ideal ortho-II order is revealed by the presence of inequivalent Cu sites in either ful
l or empty chains. The results can be explained by two kinds of defects: oxygen clustering into additional chains, or fragments thereof, most likely present at all concentrations (6.4<y<6.6) and oxygen vacancies randomly distributed in the full chains for y<6.50 only. Furthermore, the remarkable reproducibility of the spectra in different samples with optimal ortho-II order (y=6.55) shows that chain-oxygen disorder, known to limit electronic coherence, is ineluctable because it is inherent to these compounds.
