Optical Study of Crystal-Field Excitation in (R)Ba2Cu3O7-δ Single Crystals
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A large number of high-temperature superconductors (HTS) contain rare-earth (R) ions with 4f-electron multiplets which are split by the crystal field (CF) of the neighboring ligands and, in many cases, their energy differences are in the range of optical phonons. When these two excitations (phonons and CF) have the same symmetry and are close in energy they can couple to each other, leading to a doublet structure at low temperature. Since the R ions are located between the CuO2 superconducting planes, this crystal-field–phonon coupling can be used as a probe to investigate superconductivity related phenomena. In this paper, we discuss the coupling of phonons to CF excitations in (R)Ba2Cu3O7–δ and demonstrate that Raman and infrared spectroscopy can be successfully used as a novel tool for CF studies in HTS, since they are not limited to low energy transfer and can be applied to study small single crystals.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
