Inelastic neutron scattering peak in Zn substituted YBa2Cu3O7

preprint1999arXivOpen access

Abstract

The effects of nonmagnetic impurities on the neutron scattering intensity are studied for a model of the copper oxide layers in the normal state. The contribution to the Q=(pi,pi) neutron scattering intensity from processes involving the scattering of the spin fluctuations from an impurity with large momentum transfers are calculated within the random phase approximation. It is shown that this type of scatterings could lead to a peak in the neutron scattering intensity in the normal state.
