NMR investigation of superconductivity and Antiferromagnetism in CaFe2As2 under pressure.

چکیده
We report 75As NMR measurements in CaFe2As2, made under applied pressures up to 0.83 GPa produced by a standard clamp pressure cell. Our data reveal phase segregation of paramagnetic and antiferromagnetic (AFM) phases over a range of pressures, with the AFM phase more than 90% dominant at low temperatures. In situ rf susceptibility measurements indicate the presence of superconductivity. 75As spin-lattice relaxation experiments indicate that the 75As nuclei sample the superconductivity while in the magnetically ordered environment.

Suppression of electron correlations in the collapsed tetragonal phase of CaFe2As2 under ambient pressure demonstrated by As75 NMR/NQR measurements
The static and the dynamic spin correlations in the low-temperature collapsed tetragonal and the hightemperature tetragonal phase in CaFe2As2 have been investigated by As75 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) measurements. Through the temperature (T) dependence of the nuclear spin lattice relaxation rates (1/T1) and the Knight shifts, although stripe-type ant...
متن کاملPressure induced superconductivity in CaFe2As2.
CaFe2As2 has been found to be exceptionally sensitive to the application of hydrostatic pressure and can be tuned to reveal all the salient features associated with FeAs superconductivity without introducing any disorder. The ambient pressure, 170 K, structural/magnetic, first-order phase transition is suppressed to 128 K by 3.5 kbar. At 5.5 kbar a new transition is detected at 104 K, increasin...
متن کاملStrong coupling of the Fe-spin state and the As-As hybridization in iron-pnictide superconductors from first-principle calculations.
From first-principles calculations, we unravel surprisingly strong interactions between arsenic ions in iron pnictides, the strength of which is controlled by the Fe-spin state. Reducing the Fe-magnetic moment weakens the Fe-As bonding, and in turn, increases As-As interactions, causing giant reduction in the c axis. For the CaFe2As2 system, this reduction is as large as 1.4 angstroms. Since th...
متن کاملTransport Properties of Heavy Electron Metals
Resistivity ( p ) and thermoelectric power (Q) experiments are described for two different ground states at zero pressure (P): a normal phase (CeA13) and a superconducting phase (UBel3). In CeA13, antiferromagnetism occurs clearly at P = 0 and may disappear rapidly under pressure. Magnetic field and pressure experiments in UBe13 show that antiferromagnetism and superconductivity may be antagonist.
متن کاملInterplay between different states in heavy fermion physics
Calorimetry experiments under high pressure were used to clarify the interplay between different states such as superconductivity and antiferromagnetism in CeRhIn5, spin density wave and large moment antiferromagnetism in URu2Si2. Evidences are given on the re-entrance of antiferromagnetism under magnetic field in the superconducting phase of CeRhIn5 up to pc = 2.5 GPa where the Néel temperatur...
