Description

YBa2Cu3Ox is known to be antiferromagnetic (AFM-for x approx-lt 6.45 but the details of its sublattice magnetization(s) are still controversial. A zero-fieldμ+SR investigation of the x- and T-dependence of the local fields at several muon sites reveals sharp changes at 10K and 80K for an oriented powder sample with x∼6.0, but other x∼6.0 samples do not show the same features. The direction of the local field t oneμ+ site is shown to be along the c-axis. For x<5.0 the samples still show local spin freezing up to 300K, but coherent AFM order is lost at 3K
