Emergence of superconductivity at 45 K by lanthanum and phosphorus co-doping of CaFe2As2
نویسندگان
چکیده
Co-doping of lanthanum and phosphorus in CaFe₂As₂ induces superconductivity at 45 K. This superconducting transition temperature is higher than the 38 K transition in Ba₁-xKxFe₂As₂, which is the maximum found thus far among the 122 phases. Superconductivity with a substantial shielding volume fraction was observed at 0.12 ≤ x ≤ 0.18 and y = 0.06 in Ca₁-xLaxFe₂(As₁-yPy)₂. The superconducting phase of the present system seems to be not adjacent to an antiferromagnetic phase.

Superconductivity in LaFeAs1−xPxO: effect of chemical pressures and bond covalency
We report the realization of superconductivity by an isovalent doping with phosphorus in LaFeAsO. X-ray diffraction shows that, with the partial substitution of P for As, the Fe2As2 layers are squeezed while the La2O2 layers are stretched along the c-axis. Electrical resistance and magnetization measurements show emergence of bulk superconductivity at ∼10 K for the optimally-doped LaFeAs1−xPxO ...

The exploitation of interface effects turned out to be a powerful tool for generating exciting material properties. Such properties include magnetism, electronic and ionic transport and even superconductivity. Here, instead of using conventional homogeneous doping to enhance the hole concentration in lanthanum cuprate and achieve superconductivity, we replace single LaO planes with SrO dopant p...

متن کاملGiant phonon softening and enhancement of superconductivity by phosphorus doping of BaNi2As2.
The effects of phosphorus doping on the structural and superconducting phase transitions of BaNi2(As(1-x)P(x))2 were studied. The specific heat, resistivity, and magnetic susceptibility were measured. The results revealed an abrupt increase in the superconducting transition temperature (T(c)) from 0.6 K in the triclinic phase (space group P1¯) with less phosphorus (x≤0.067) to 3.3 K in the tetr...
