Theory of Spin Fluctuations in Striped Phases of Doped Antiferromagnetic Cuprates

We study the properties of generalized striped phases of doped cuprate planar quantum antiferromagnets. We invoke an effective, spatially anisotropic, non-linear sigma model in two space dimensions. Our theoretical predictions are in quantitative agreement with recent experiments in La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4 with $0 \leq x \leq 0.018$. We focus on (i) the magnetic correlation length, (ii) the staggered magnetization at $T=0$ and (iii) the Néel temperature, as functions of doping, using parameters determined previously and independently for this system. These results support the proposal that the low doping (antiferromagnetic) phase of the cuprates has a striped configuration.

Doped planar quantum antiferromagnets with striped phases

We study the properties of the striped phases that have been proposed for the doped cuprate planar quantum antiferromagnets. We invoke an effective, spatially anisotropic, non-linear sigma model in two space dimensions. Our theoretical predictions are in {\it quantitative} agreement with recent experiments. We focus on (i) the staggered magnetization at $T=0$ and (ii) the Néel temperature, as functions of doping; these have been measured recently in La${}_{2-x}$ Sr${}_x$ Cu O${}_4$ with $0 \leq x \leq 0.018$. Good agreement with experiment is obtained using parameters determined previously and independently for this system. These results support the proposal that the low doping (antiferromagnetic) phase of the cuprates has a striped configuration.
