Charge Density Variations or Stripes in YBa2Cu3O6+y

Abstract

For many years it was believed that NMR on the YBa2Cu3O6+y family of superconductors does not support charge density variations or stripes. We discuss the NMR data of YBa2Cu3O6+y (y > 0.63) and show that large charge density variations are actually necessary in order to explain the data.
