Charge order (CO) has been recognized as one of the most important competing order in superconductive cuprates. In YBa2Cu3O6+x (YBCO), CO could only be investigated by x-ray diffraction in under-doped YBCO with low critical temperatures (TC), but not in highly-doped YBCO with high TC suitable for device applications, due to the competing superconductive phase. Therefore, the most fundamental physical mechanisms governing CO, for example, the role of so-called charge reservoir (Cu-O chain) layers in CO and the spatial interplay of CO and SC, in highly-doped YBCO are still unclear.
Here, we present the direct real-space cross-sectional scanning tunneling microscopy (XSTM) imaging with atomic resolution to characterize the atomically resolved electronic structure along the c [001] direction in high-temperature superconductive cuprates. We demonstrate that CO occurs on CuO plane and chain layers with an antiphase correlation along the c-axis direction governed by Coulomb repulsion rather than Josephson tunneling. Similarly, superconductive coherence is also observed in chain and plane layers. In addition, both phases exhibit a proximity-like boundary region mutually suppressing CO and SC.
The present atomically-resolved XSTM provides a detailed insight into the unexplored interlayer coupling and its spatial interplay with superconductivity and therefore offers a new approach to unravel the fundamental physical mechanisms of superconductivity in cuprates.[1]
