Abstract The low-frequency relaxation internal friction spectrum of La2CuO4+δhas been measured from -170 to 200°C in an automatic torsion apparatus at frequencies between 0.1 and 5.0Hz. Three new relaxation processes are found with maxima, which are attributed to thermally activated diffusive jumps of oxygen atoms or vacancies in the oxygen sublattice, according to various activation enthalpies of three experimental runs. It is shown that the content of oxygen defect have important influences on the physical properties of La2CuO4+δ.
