Abstract
Neutron scattering probed novel two dimensional antiferromagnetic spin correlations in pure La2CuO4 which is the mother compound of high temperature superconductors of doped La2-xMxCuO4. Cu2+ moments are ordered instantaneously over very large areas in the CuO2 plane but there is no measurable time averaged staggered moment. Since the dynamical behavior observed is much akin to that in the quantum antigerromagnetic chain, we concluded that spin fluctuations observed at finite temperatures are quantum spin liquid state like that in quantum antiferromagnetic chain at T = 0.
