Magnitude of spin and charge density wave amplitudes in underdoped cuprates

Abstract

Self-consistent calculation of spin (charge) density wave (S(C)DW) order parameters have been performed for bilayered cuprates on the basis of a singlet-correlated band model. Evolution of the Fermi surface in the strongly underdoped regime is described by a two-band approach. The smooth development of the pseudogap formation temperature from underdoped to overdoped states is explained and the Fourier amplitudes 〈sq〉 (spin) and 〈eq〉 (charge) modulations are calculated. We have found a maximum of the incommensurability for doping 0.09÷0.11 holes per copper site. © Springer-Verlag 2000.
