We report on an infrared study of carrier dynamics within the CuO$_{2}$ planes in heavily underdoped detwinned single crystals of YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$% _{y}$. In an effort to reveal the electronic structure near the onset of superconductivity, we investigate the strong anisotropy of the electromagnetic response due to an enhancement of the scattering rate along the a-axis. We propose that the origin of this anisotropy is related to a modulation of the electron density within the CuO$_{2}$ planes.

We use inelastic neutron scattering to study the temperature dependence of the spin excitations of a detwinned superconducting YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.45}$ ($T_c=48$ K). In contrast to earlier work on YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.5}$ ($T_c=58$ K), where the promine
nt features in the magnetic spectra consist of a sharp collective magnetic excitation termed ``resonance and a large ($hbaromegaapprox 15$ meV) superconducting spin gap, we find that the spin excitations in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.45}$ are gapless and have a much broader resonance. Our detailed mapping of magnetic scattering along the $a^ast$/$b^ast$-axis directions at different energies reveals that spin excitations are unisotropic and consistent with the ``hourglass-like dispersion along the $a^ast$-axis direction near the resonance, but they are isotropic at lower energies. Since a fundamental change in the low-temperature normal state of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+y}$ when superconductivity is suppressed takes place at $ysim0.5$ with a metal-to-insulator crossover (MIC), where the ground state transforms from a metallic to an insulating-like phase, our results suggest a clear connection between the large change in spin excitations and the MIC. The resonance therefore is a fundamental feature of metallic ground state superconductors and a consequence of high-$T_c$ superconductivity.
We report the magnetic field-amplitude and field-angle dependence of the superconducting onset temperature Tc_onset of the organic superconductor (TMTSF)2ClO4 in magnetic fields H accurately aligned to the conductive ab plane. We revealed that the ra
pid increase of the onset fields at low temperatures occurs both for H // b and H // a, irrespective of the carrier confinement. Moreover, in the vicinity of the Pauli limiting field, we report a shift of a principal axis of the in-plane field-angle dependence of Tc_onset away from the b axis. This feature may be related to an occurrence of Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov phases.
Short-range lattice superstructures have been studied with high-energy x-ray diffuse scattering in underdoped, optimally doped, and overdoped $rm (Y,Ca)Ba_2 Cu_3 O_{6+x}$. A new four-unit-cell superstructure was observed in compounds with $xsim 0.95$
. Its temperature, doping, and material dependence was used to attribute its origin to short-range oxygen vacancy ordering, rather than electronic instabilities in the $rm CuO_2$ layers. No significant diffuse scattering is observed in YBa$_2$Cu$_4$O$_{8}$. The oxygen superstructures must be taken into account when interpreting spectral anomalies in $rm (Y,Ca)Ba_2 Cu_3 O_{6+x}$.
The far-infrared dielectric response of superlattices (SL) composed of superconducting YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7}$ (YBCO) and ferromagnetic La$_{0.67}$% Ca$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$ (LCMO) has been investigated by ellipsometry. A drastic decrease of the free ca
rrier response is observed which involves an unusually large length scale of d$^{crit}approx $20 nm in YBCO and d$^{crit}approx $10 nm in LCMO. A corresponding suppression of metallicity is not observed in SLs where LCMO is replaced by the paramagnetic metal LaNiO$_{3}$. Our data suggest that either a long range charge transfer from the YBCO to the LCMO layers or alternatively a strong coupling of the charge carriers to the different and competitive kind of magnetic correlations in the LCMO and YBCO layers are at the heart of the observed metal/insulator transition. The low free carrier response observed in the far-infrared dielectric response of the magnetic superconductor RuSr$_{2}$GdCu$_{2}$O$_{8}$ is possibly related to this effect.
We have synthesized polycrystalline samples and single crystals of Fe(Te1-xSx)y, and characterized their properties. Our results show that the solid solution of S in this system is limited, < 30%. We observed superconductivity at ~ 9 K in both polycr
ystalline samples Fe(Te1-xSx)y with 0< x <= 0.3 and 0.86 <= y <= 1.0, and single crystals with the composition Fe(Te0.9S0.1)0.91, consistent with the recent report of Tc ~ 10 K superconductivity in the FeTe1-xSx polycrystalline samples with x = 0.1 and 0.2. Furthermore, our systematic studies show that the superconducting properties of this system sensitively depend on excess Fe at interstitial sites and that the excess Fe suppresses superconductivity. Another important observation from our studies is the coexistence of the superconducting phase and antiferromagnetism. Our analyses suggest that this phase coexistence may be associated with the random distribution of excess Fe and possibly occurs in the form of electronic inhomogeneity.
