Abstract

Magnetic excitations for energies up to \ensuremath∼100 meV are studied for overdoped La_2\ensuremath-xSrxCuO4 with x=0.25 and 0.30, using time-of-flight neutron spectroscopy. Comparison of spectra integrated over the width of an antiferromagnetic Brillouin zone demonstrates that the magnetic scattering at intermediate energies, 20\ensuremath\lesssim\ensuremathω\ensuremath\lesssim100 meV, progressively decreases with overdoping. This strongly suggests that the magnetism is not related to Fermi surface nesting, but rather is associated with a decreasing volume fraction of (probably fluctuating) antiferromagnetic bubbles.
