Abstract
High-energy photon diffraction is used to investigate the charge order ing previously studied by neutron diffraction in La1.48Nd0.4Sr0.12CuO4 . Besides confirming the existence of superlattice peaks due to charge order, the temperature dependence of the peak intensity, width, and p osition has been determined with improved precision. Furthermore, we s how that the scattered intensity has a sinusoidial modulation along c , consistent with long-range Coulomb interactions between ordered char ges within the CuO2 planes.
