Competition/Coexisitence of Magnetism and Superconductivity in Iron Pnictides Probed by Muon Spin Rotation
The presence of macroscopic phase separation into superconducting and magnetic phases in LaFeAsO1−xFx and CaFe1−xCoxAsF is demonstrated by muon spin rotation (μSR) measurement across their phase boundaries (x = 0.06 for LaFeAsO1−xFx and x = 0.075–0.15 for CaFe1−xCoxAsF). In LaFeAsO0.94F0.06, both magnetism and superconductivity develop simultaneously below a common critical temperature, Tm ≃ Tc...
متن کاملSuperconductivity-induced re-entrance of the orthorhombic distortion in Ba1−xKxFe2As2
Detailed knowledge of the phase diagram and the nature of the competing magnetic and superconducting phases is imperative for a deeper understanding of the physics of iron-based superconductivity. Magnetism in the iron-based superconductors is usually a stripe-type spin-density-wave, which breaks the tetragonal symmetry of the lattice, and is known to compete strongly with superconductivity. Re...
متن کاملSpin excitations in hole-overdoped iron-based superconductors
Understanding the overall features of magnetic excitation is essential for clarifying the mechanism of Cooper pair formation in iron-based superconductors. In particular, clarifying the relationship between magnetism and superconductivity is a central challenge because magnetism may play a key role in their exotic superconductivity. BaFe2As2 is one of ideal systems for such investigation becaus...
متن کاملCoexistence and competition of magnetism and superconductivity on the nanometer scale in underdoped BaFe1.89Co0.11As2.
We report muon spin rotation (μSR) and infrared spectroscopy experiments on underdoped BaFe1.89Co0.11As2 which show that bulk magnetism and superconductivity (SC) coexist and compete on the nanometer length scale. Our combined data reveal a bulk magnetic order, likely due to an incommensurate spin density wave (SDW), which develops below T(mag)≈32 K and becomes reduced in magnitude (but not in...
متن کاملElectronic phase separation in the slightly underdoped iron pnictide superconductor Ba1-xKxFe2As2.
Here we present a combined study of the slightly underdoped novel pnictide superconductor Ba1-xKxFe2As2 by means of x-ray powder diffraction, neutron scattering, muon-spin rotation (microSR), and magnetic force microscopy (MFM). Static antiferromagnetic order sets in below T{m} approximately 70 K as inferred from the neutron scattering and zero-field-microSR data. Transverse-field microSR below...
