Description
Quasi one-dimensional (1D) spin ladders host exotic low-energy excitations. Recently, susceptibility measurements suggested that Co doping alters the magnetism in the spin ladder of Sr14Cu24O41. We studied the Co impurity effects of Sr14Cu24O41 using Resonant Inelastic X-Ray Scattering (RIXS) at Cu L3- and O K-edges. Cu L3 RIXS has been shown to be a powerful probe of magnetic excitations in low-dimensional cuprates, and O K RIXS is capable of resolving charge dynamics in the self-hole doped Sr14Cu24O41. We observed a clear hardening and sharpening of the two-triplon continuum in the Co doped Sr14Cu24O41 ladders connected a reduced hole density.
