Abstract
- Competition with magnetism is at the heart of high temperature superconductivity, most intensely felt near a vortex core. To investigate vortex magnetism we have developed a spatially resolved probe using nuclear magnetic resonance. Our spin-lattice-relaxation spectroscopy is spatially resolved both within a conduction plane as well as from one plane to another. With this approach we have found a spin-density wave associated with the vortex core in Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+\delta}$, which is expected from scanning tunneling microscope observations of "checkerboard" patterns in the local density of electronic states.[1] We determine both the spin-modulation amplitude and decay length from the vortex core in fields up to H=30 T.<br />Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures
