NMR-NQR study of the crossover from the spin-glass to the superconducting phase in La{sub 2{minus}x}Sr{sub x}CuO{sub 4}
- Unita INFM di Pavia (Italy). Dipt. di Fisica
{sup 139}La and {sup 63}Cu NQR relaxation rates are used to obtain insights on the effects of itinerant holes on the magnetic in-plane correlation length, for x {le} 0.04 in La{sub 2{minus}x}Sr{sub x}CuO{sub 4}. For these concentrations, corresponding to spin-glass behavior at low temperature, evidence for the microsegregation of holes along stripes is presented. Preliminary relaxation results for an amount of Sr doping leading to superconductivity are also presented and discussed in terms of the crossover from the spin-glass to the underdoped superconducting regime: for x = 0.06 a slowing down of spin fluctuations is evidenced and superconductivity is found to coexist with spin-freezing.
