Stripe Conductivity in La(1.775)Sr(0.225)NiO(4)
Abstract
We report Raman light-scattering and optical conductivity measurements on a single crystal of La(1.775)Sr(0.225)NiO(4) which exhibits incommensurate charge-stripe order. The extra phonon peaks induced by stripe order can be understood in terms of the energies of phonons that occur at the charge-order wave vector, Qc. A strong Fano antiresonance for a Ni-O bond-stretching mode provides clear evidence for finite dynamical conductivity within the charge stripes.
