Suppression of static stripe formation by next-neighbor hopping
Bruce Normand, A. P. Kampf
Abstract
We show from real-space Hartree-Fock calculations within the extended Hubbard model that next-nearest neighbor ${(t}^{\ensuremath{'}})$ hopping processes act to suppress the formation of static charge stripes. This result is confirmed by investigating the evolution of charge-inhomogeneous corral and stripe phases with increasing ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ of both signs. We propose that large ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ values in YBCO prevent static stripe formation, while anomalously small ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ in LSCO provides an additional reason for the appearance of static stripes only in these systems.
