Аннотация

Photoinduced infrared absorption measurements of YBa2Cu3O7-δ (δ = 0.75) and La2CuO4 are reported. We have observed photoinduced infrared active vibrational modes and associated phonon bleachings which indicate the formation of a localized structural distortion in the Cu-O plane around the photogenerated carriers. In both materials, an associated electronic transition indicates that this structural distortion causes the formation of a self-localized electronic state in the energy gap. The photoinduced distortion and the associated self-localized gap state demonstrate that the photoexcitations are relatively long-lived polarons (or bipolarons). The dynamic mass associated with the distortion is smaller in YBa2Cu3O7-δ than in La2CuO4 (smaller dynamic mass implies a longer range distortion). Since these features are not observed in the isostructural compound, La2NiO4, we conclude that polaron (or bipolaron) formation plays an important role in the high temperature superconductivity.
