We report ¹³⁹La nuclear magnetic resonance studies performed on a La_1.875Ba_0.125CuO₄ single crystal. The data show that the structural phase transitions (high-temperature tetragonal → low-temperature orthorhombic → low-temperature tetragonal phase) are of the displacive type in this material. The ¹³⁹La spin-lattice relaxation rate T^–1₁ sharply upturns at the charge-ordering temperature T_CO = 54 K, indicating that charge order triggers the slowing down of spin fluctuations. Detailed temperature and field dependencies of the T^–1₁ below the spin-ordering temperature T_SO=40 K reveal the development of enhanced spin fluctuations in the spin-ordered state for H ∥ [001], which are completely suppressed for large fields along the CuO₂ planes. Lastly, our results shed light on the unusual spin fluctuations in the charge and spin stripe ordered lanthanum cuprates.
