主 题:EuFeAs_(2) iron-based superconductors superconductivity magnetism
摘 要:The discovery of EuFeAs_(2),currently the only charge-neutral parent phase of the 112-type iron-pnictide system,provides a new platform for the study of elemental doping effects on magnetism and superconductivity(SC).In this study,a series of polycrystalline EuFe_(1-y)Co_(y)As_(2)and Eu_(0.9)Pr_(0.1)Fe_(1-y)Co_(y)As_(2)samples are synthesized through solid-state reaction,and the evolutions of SC and magnetism with Co doping in EuFeAs_(2)and Eu_(0.9)Pr_(0.1)FeAs_(2)are investigated by electrical transport and magnetic susceptibility *** EuFe_(1-y)Co_(y)As_(2),the Eu-related antiferromagnetic(AFM)transition around 40 K is barely affected by Co doping,while the Fe-related spin density wave(SDW)transition temperature drops ***,SC is induced by a trace amount of Co doping,with a highest transition temperature T_(c)~28 K found in EuFe0.9Co0.1As_(2).For the Eu_(0.9)Pr_(0.1)Fe1-yCo_(y)As_(2)series,the magnetism and superconductivity show similar evolutions upon Co doping,and the highest T_(c)is enhanced to 30.6 K with an optimum doping level y~*** results shed light on the competition between SC and SDW with Co doping in the 112-type EuFeAs_(2)system.
