چکیده

We report a systematic investigation of Ba(Fe1 xCox)2As2 based on transport and As NMR measurements, and establish the electronic phase diagram. We demonstrate that doping progressively suppresses the uniform spin susceptibility and low frequency spin fluctuations. The optimum superconducting phase emerges at xc ’ 0:08 when the tendency toward spin ordering completely diminishes. Our findings point toward the presence of a quantum critical point near xc between the SDW (spin density wave) and superconducting phases.

Effect of disorder on the resistivity anisotropy near the electronic nematic phase transition in pure and electron-doped BaFe(2)As(2).

We show that the strain-induced resistivity anisotropy in the tetragonal state of the representative underdoped Fe arsenides BaFe_{2}As_{2}, Ba(Fe_{1-x}Co_{x})_{2}As_{2} and Ba(Fe_{1-x}Ni_{x})_{2}As_{2} is independent of disorder over a wide range of defect and impurity concentrations. This result demonstrates that the anisotropy in the in-plane resistivity in the paramagnetic orthorhombic stat...

Band structure and fermi surface of an extremely overdoped iron-based superconductor KFe2As2.

We have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on heavily overdoped KFe_{2}As_{2} (transition temperature T_{c} = 3 K). We observed several renormalized bands near the Fermi level with a renormalization factor of 2-4. While the Fermi surface around the Brillouin-zone center is qualitatively similar to that of optimally doped Ba_{1-x}K_{x}Fe_{2}As_{2} (x = 0.4; T_{c}...

Cu substitution effects on the local magnetic properties of Ba(Fe(1-x)Cu(x))(2)As(2): a site-selective (75)As and (63)Cu NMR study.

We take advantage of the site-selective nature of the ^{75}As and ^{63}Cu NMR techniques to probe the Cu substitution effects on the local magnetic properties of the FeAs planes in Ba(Fe_{1-x}Cu_{x})_{2}As_{2}. We show that the suppression of antiferromagnetic Fe spin fluctuations induced by Cu substitution is weaker than a naive expectation based on a simple rigid band picture, in which each C...

Effects of Lifshitz transition on charge transport in magnetic phases of Fe-based superconductors.

The unusual temperature dependence of the resistivity and its in-plane anisotropy observed in the Fe-based superconducting materials, particularly Ba(Fe_{1-x}Co_{x})_{2}As_{2}, has been a long-standing puzzle. Here, we consider the effect of impurity scattering on the temperature dependence of the average resistivity within a simple two-band model of a dirty spin density wave metal. The sharp d...

Determination of the phase diagram of the electron-doped superconductor Ba(Fe1−xCox)2As2

Systematic measurements of the resistivity, heat capacity, susceptibility, and Hall coefficient are presented for single-crystal samples of the electron-doped superconductor Ba Fe1−xCox 2As2. These data delineate an x-T phase diagram in which the single magnetic/structural phase transition that is observed for undoped BaFe2As2 at 134 K appears to split into two distinct phase transitions, both ...
