Abstract

We report 63Cu2 spin-lattice relaxation rate measurements of YBa2Cu3O6.95 in magnetic fields from 2.1 to 27.3 T obtained from 17O2,3 nuclear magnetic resonance spin-spin relaxation. For T<120K, the spin-lattice rate increases with increasing magnetic field. We identify this magnetic field dependence with the change in the low-energy spectral weight originating from d-wave pairing fluctuation corrections to the density of states.
