Magnetic Response of Pr1-xLaCexCuO4 in Comparison with Hole-Doped Cuprates
Abstract:
The magnetic susceptibility of the optimally doped Pr1-xLaCexCuO4 in the superconducting state is calculated using the t-J model of Cu-O planes, the Mori projection operator technique, and the dispersion of electron bands derived from photoemission experiments. The electron band folding across the antiferromagnetic Brillouin zone border, which is inherent in the crystal, leads to a commensurate low-frequency response. The same band folding causes the appearance of a supplementary spin-excitation branch, which coexists with usual spin excitations. This coexistence can explain two maxima observed in the frequency dependence of the susceptibility. The two nested spin-excitation branches lead to a comb of closely spaced peaks in momentum cuts, which presumably are not resolved in experiment, being seen as a broad commensurate peak up to 100 meV. Reasons for differences in magnetic responses of electron- and hole-doped cuprates are discussed.
