Antiferromagnetic correlations have been argued to be the cause of the d-wave superconductivity and the pseudogap phenomena exhibited by the cuprates. Although the antiferromagnetic response in the pseudogap state has been reported for a number of compounds, there exists no information for structurally simple HgBa2CuO(4+δ). Here we report neutron-scattering results for HgBa2CuO(4+δ) (superconducting transition temperature Tc≈71 K, pseudogap temperature T*≈305 K) that demonstrate the absence of the two most prominent features of the magnetic excitation spectrum of the cuprates: the X-shaped 'hourglass' response and the resonance mode in the superconducting state. Instead, the response is Y-shaped, gapped and significantly enhanced below T*, and hence a prominent signature of the pseudogap state.
反铁磁关联被认为是铜酸盐所表现出的d波超导性和赝能隙现象的原因。尽管已经报道了许多化合物在赝能隙状态下的反铁磁响应，但对于结构简单的HgBa2CuO(4+δ)却没有相关信息。在此，我们报告了HgBa2CuO(4+δ)（超导转变温度Tc≈71K，赝能隙温度T*≈305K）的中子散射结果，这些结果表明铜酸盐磁激发谱中两个最显著的特征不存在：X形的“沙漏”响应和超导态下的共振模式。相反，其响应是Y形的，有能隙，并且在T*以下显著增强，因此是赝能隙状态的一个显著特征。
