摘要：

We have determined the anisotropic Debye-Waller parameters of La1.85Sr0.15CuO4 with high precision using neutron diffraction on single crystals. The mean-square displacements are explained well by the contribution due to phonons and disorder induced by the mixing of La and Sr ions; the latter was simulated by relaxing the structure locally. Our analysis puts rather low upper boundaries on the amplitude of possible hidden local structural distortions; in particular, there is no evidence for in-plane charge inhomogeneities related to stripe correlations. Further, we conclude that the tilt transition in La1.85Sr0.15CuO4 is essentially displacive and continuous in nature.
