Introduction
With a perpendicular field applied to a layered barium-doped cuprate, finite in-plane and interlayer resistivities set in at different temperatures. Diffraction measurements also reveal evidence for field-induced charge and spin stripes.
A closer reading
A single transport direction could hide the distinction between superconductivity within a layer and coherence between layers. Transport and diffraction support a decoupling scenario, while the causal role of stripe order remains a separate question.
