Near-Surface Structural Phase Transition of SrTiO${}_3$ Studied with Zero-Field $\beta$-Detected Nuclear Spin Relaxation and Resonance

Z. Salman, R. F. Kiefl, K. H. Chow +12

We demonstrate that zero-field $\beta$-detected nuclear quadrupole resonance and spin relaxation of low energy ${}^8$Li can be used as a sensitive local probe of structural phase transit…
