Tuning superconductivity and its interplay with other phases in cuprates yields insights into the underlying physics of this material class. Here, the authors performed a hard x-ray diffraction experiment on La1.88Sr0.12CuO4 showing that uniaxial pressure along the c-axis acts as a direct tuning parameter of the competition between superconductivity and charge order.
