Popis | The in-plane dielectric response of detwinned YBa2Cu3O6.95 has been studied by far-infared ellipsometry. A surprisingly large number of in-plane polarized modes are observed. Some of them correspond to pure phonon modes. Others possess a large electronic contribution which strongly increases in the superconducting state. The free carrier response and the collective modes exhibit a Pronounced a-b anisotropy. We discuss our results in terms of a charge density wave state in the 1-D CuO chains and induced charge density fluctuations within the 2-D CuO2 planes. |
