These techniques use the dependence of the NQR signal on the duration of the radio frequency (rf) pulse and on the direction of the rf field H<sub>1<\/sub> with respect to the crystal axis. The techniques are applied to oriented powder of YBa<sub>2<\/sub>Cu<sub>3<\/sub>O<sub>y<\/sub> fully enriched with <sup>63<\/sup>Cu. Measurements were performed at different frequencies, corresponding to different in-plane copper sites with respect to the dopant. Combining the results from both techniques, we conclude that oxygen deficiency in the chain layer lead to a rotation of the NQR main principal axis at the nearby Cu on the CuO<sub>2<\/sub> planes by \u03b1 \u2242 20\u00b0 \u2213 5\u00b0. This occurs with no change to \u03b7. The axis rotation associated with oxygen deficiency means that there must be electric field inhomogeneities in the CuO<sub>2<\/sub> planes only in the vicinity of the missing oxygen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>R.

The method is based on the measurement of the echo intensity as a function of the angle between the radio frequency field <strong>H<\/strong><sub>1<\/sub> and the principal axis of the electric field gradient. Static charge inhomogeneity deduced from \u03b7&gt;0 is found in this compound, but only in conjunction with oxygen deficiency.

In this situation, the recently developed spectroscopic methods are not applicable. ADNQR is useful for single crystals and oriented powders, and, for small \u03b7 determines \u03b7<sup>4<\/sup>. Therefore, it can be used to evaluate fluctuations in \u03b7 due to inhomogeneities. We demonstrate the application of ADNQR experimentally to oriented superconducting YBa<sub>2<\/sub>Cu<sub>3<\/sub>O<sub>7<\/sub> powder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our NQR apparatus is an hybridization of Oxford instruments continuous flow cryostat, a TECMAG spectrometer, and a home build head.
