Incommensurate spin-density wave order in electron-doped BaFe2 As2 superconductors.

چکیده
Neutron diffraction studies of Ba(Fe(1-x)Co(x))(2)As)(2) reveal that commensurate antiferromagnetic order gives way to incommensurate magnetic order for Co compositions between 0.056 < x < 0.06. The incommensurability has the form of a small transverse splitting (0, ± ε, 0) from the commensurate antiferromagnetic propagation vector Q(AFM) = (1,0,1) (in orthorhombic notation) where ε ≈ 0.02-0.03 and is composition dependent. The results are consistent with the formation of a spin-density wave driven by Fermi surface nesting of electron and hole pockets and confirm the itinerant nature of magnetism in the iron arsenide superconductors.

Confinement transition to density wave order in metallic doped spin liquids
Insulating quantum spin liquids can undergo a confinement transition to a valence bond solid via the condensation of topological excitations of the associated gauge theory. We extend the theory of such transitions to fractionalized Fermi liquids (FL*): these are metallic doped spin liquids in which the Fermi surfaces only have gauge neutral quasiparticles. Using insights from a duality transfor...
متن کاملAntiferromagnetic transition in EuFe2As2: a possible parent compound for superconductors
Ternary iron arsenide EuFe2 As2 with ThCr2 Si2 -type structure has been studied by magnetic susceptibility, resistivity, thermopower, Hall, and specific-heat measurements. The compound undergoes two magnetic phase transitions at about 200 and 20 K, respectively. The former was found to be accompanied with a slight drop in magnetic susceptibility (after subtracting the Curie-Weiss paramagnetic c...
متن کاملMagnetic incommensurability in a doped Mott insulator
In this paper we explore the incommensurate spatial modulation of spin-spin correlations as the intrinsic property of the doped Mott insulator, described by the t-J model. We show that such an incommensurability is a direct manifestation of the phase-string effect introduced by doped holes in both oneand two-dimensional cases. The magnetic incommensurate peaks of dynamic spin susceptibility in ...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance in the spin excitation spectrum of electron-doped cuprate superconductors.
We study the emergence of a magnetic resonance in the superconducting state of the electron-doped cuprate superconductors. We show that the recently observed resonance peak in the electron-doped superconductor Pr0.88LaCe0.12CuO4-delta is consistent with an overdamped spin exciton located near the particle-hole continuum. We present predictions for the magnetic-field dependence of the resonance ...

We investigate the issues of competing orders and quantum criticality in cuprate super-conductors via experimental studies of the high-field thermodynamic phase diagrams and the quasiparticle tunneling spectroscopy. Our results suggest substantial field-induced quantum fluctuations in all cuprates investigated, and their correlation with quasiparticle spectra implies that both electron-(n-type)...
