Mh. Julien et al., NMR-NQR study of the crossover from the spin-glass to the superconducting phase in La2-xSrxCuO4, INT J MOD B, 13(9-10), 1999, pp. 1235-1240
La-139 and Cu-63 NQR relaxation rates are used to obtain insights on the ef
fects of itinerant holes on the magnetic in-plane correlation length, for x
less than or equal to 0.04 in La2-xSrxCuO4. For these concentrations, corr
esponding to spin-glass behavior at low temperature, evidence for the micro
segregation of holes along stripes is presented. Preliminary relaxation res
ults for an amount of Sr doping leading to superconductivity are also prese
nted and discussed in terms of the crossover from the spin-glass to the und
erdoped superconducting regime: for x = 0.06 a slowing down of spin fluctua
tions is evidenced and superconductivity is found to coexist with spin-free
zing.
