The phase diagram of underdoped cuprates in a magnetic field (H) is key to understanding the anomalous normal state of these high-temperature superconductors. However, the upper critical field (Hc2), the extent of superconducting (SC) phase with vortices, and the role of charge orders at high H remain controversial. Here we study stripe-ordered La-214, i.e., cuprates in which charge orders are most pronounced and zero-field SC transition temperatures Tc0 are lowest. This enables us to explore the vortex phases in a previously inaccessible energy scale window. By combining linear and nonlinear transport techniques sensitive to vortex matter, we determine the T − H phase diagram, directly detect Hc2, and reveal novel properties of the high-field ground state. Our results demonstrate that quantum fluctuations and disorder play a key role as T → 0, while the high-field ground state is likely a metal, not an insulator, due to the presence of stripes.

Part of the phase diagram of the La 2 O 3- CuO system has been studied and single crystals of La 2 CuO 4, (LaSr) 2 CuO 4 (up to 20 × 8 × 6 mm 3), YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7−δ (up to 8 × 6 × 0.1 mm 3) and HoBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-(up to 3 × 2.5 × 1 mm 3) have been grown by the method of spontaneous crystallisation, using a rotational crucible. It has been established that thermal treatment of "123" single crystals under oxygen pressure to 10 bars improves their superconducting properties. Electrical, magnetic, optical properties, and the real structure of the single crystals produced have been studied.
