摘要
Muon-spin relaxation (mu SR) measurements were carried out in the partially Zn-substituted Y-123 system, YBa2Cu3-2yZn2yO7-delta, to investigate the so-called 1/8 effect. The muon-spin depolarization rate has been found to he anomalously enhanced at low temperatures in the Zn-substituted samples around the hole concentration per Cu in the CuO2 plane p similar to 1/8, as observed in the case of the Zn-substituted Bi2Sr2Ca1-xYx(Cu1-yZny)(2)O8+delta With p similar to 1/8. This indicates slowing down of the Cu-spin fluctuations at p 1/8. It appears that a small amount of Zn ions are effective for the enhancement of the magnetic correlation between Cu spins at p similar to 1/8. It has been concluded that the 1/8 effect exists in the Y-123 system and is common to all high-T-c cuprates.
