We report La-139 nuclear magnetic resonance studies performed on a La1.875Ba0.125CuO4 single crystal. The data show that the structural phase transitions (high-temperature tetragonal -> low-temperature orthorhombic -> low-temperature tetragonal phase) are of the displacive type in this material. The La-139 spin-lattice relaxation rate T-1(-1) sharply upturns at the charge-ordering temperature T-CO = 54 K, indicating that charge order triggers the slowing down of spin fluctuations. Detailed temperature and field dependencies of the T-1(-1) below the spin-ordering temperature T-SO = 40 K reveal the development of enhanced spin fluctuations in the spin-ordered state for H parallel to [001], which are completely suppressed for large fields along the CuO2 planes. Our results shed light on the unusual spin fluctuations in the charge and spin stripe ordered lanthanum cuprates.
