摘要: Zero- and longitudinal-field muon-spin relaxation μ+SR measurements have been performed on La_(2-x)Sr_xCuO_4 alloys in both single-crystal sintered powder forms above below their magnetic transition temperatures, T_f. The μ+ precession frequency v depends only weakly x T_f, an observation which together with resistivity data implies classical freezing of moments the regime where carriers are localized. For x=0.05, critical dynamics observed near μ^+SR technique is shown to be very sensitive ferromagnetically aligned pairs Cu^(2+) moments; population such increases greatly x.
