Deskripsi

We show that a Fermi surface in underdoped YBa _2 Cu _3 O _6+ _x yielding the distribution of quantum oscillation frequencies observed over a broad range of magnetic field can be reconciled with the wavevectors of charge modulations found in nuclear magnetic resonance and x-ray scattering experiments within a model of biaxial charge ordering occurring in a bilayer CuO _2 planar system. Bilayer coupling introduces the possibility of different period modulations and quantum oscillation frequencies corresponding to each of the bonding and antibonding bands, which can be reconciled with recent experimental observations.
