Red areas: undoped La2CoO4 islands, blue areas: checkerboard charge ordered regions; black, green and blue balls represent nonmagnetic Co3+ ions, magnetic Co2+ ions and oxygen ions, respectively; green arrows indicate Co2+ spins [1, 2].We report on an elastic neutron scattering study of the charge correlations in La2–xSrx CoO4 with x = 1/3, 0.4 and 0.5. We found that the checkerboard charge ordering correlations present in the x = 0.5 sample persist in the x = 0.4 and 1/3 materials. These checkerboard charge ordering correlations are robust and explain the occurrence of nano-phase separation in layered cobaltates for Sr-concentrations away from half-doping. The half-integer reflections then arise from the nanometer-sized hole-rich regions (blue areas in title figure) instead of the undoped ones (red areas in title figure). The appearance of nano-phase separation is an important ingredient for understanding the formation of hour-glass shaped magnetic excitation spectra in La2–xSrx CoO4.}, cin = {JCNS-2 / PGI-4 / JARA-FIT / JCNS-ILL}, ddc = {530}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)JCNS-2-20110106 / I:(DE-Juel1)PGI-4-20110106 / $I:(DE-82)080009_20140620$ / I:(DE-Juel1)JCNS-ILL-20110128}, pnm = {144 - Controlling Collective States (POF3-144) / 524 - Controlling Collective States (POF3-524) / 6212 - Quantum Condensed Matter: Magnetism, Superconductivity (POF3-621) / 6213 - Materials and Processes for Energy and Transport Technologies (POF3-621) / 6G4 - Jülich Centre for Neutron Research (JCNS) (POF3-623)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF3-144 / G:(DE-HGF)POF3-524 / G:(DE-HGF)POF3-6212 / G:(DE-HGF)POF3-6213 / G:(DE-HGF)POF3-6G4}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000363266800005}, doi = {10.1002/pssr.201510290}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/281111}, }
