Transition from tunneling regime to local point contact realized on Ba_(0.6)K_(0.4)Fe_2As_2 surface

Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy, we studied the transition from tunneling regime to local point contact on the iron-based superconductor Ba_(0.6)K_(0.4)Fe_2As_2. By gradually reducing the junction resistance, a series of spectra were obtained with the characteristics evolving from single-particle tunneling into Andreev reflection. The spectra can be well fitted to the modified Blonder–Tinkham–Klapwijk(BTK) model and exhibit significant changes of both spectral broadening and orbital selection due to the formation of point contact. The spatial resolution of the point contact was estimated to be several nanometers, providing a unique way to study the inhomogeneity of unconventional superconductors on such a scale.     

Evolution of the 251 cm-1 infrared phonon mode with temperature in Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2

The far-infrared optical reflectivity of an optimally doped Ba1-xKxFe2As2(x =0.4) single crystal is measured from room temperature down to 4 K. We study the temperature dependence of the in-plane infrared-active phonon at 251 cm-1 . This phonon exhibits a symmetric line shape in the optical conductivity, suggesting that the coupling between the phonon and the electronic background is weak. Upon cooling down, the frequency of this phonon continuously increases, following the conventional temperature dependence expected in the absence of a structural or magnetic transition. The intensity of this phonon is temperature independent within the measurement accuracy. These observations indicate that the structural and magnetic phase transition might be completely suppressed by chemical doping in the optimally doped Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2 compound.     

Evolution of the 251 cm-1 temperature in infrared phonon mode with Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2

The far-infrared optical reflectivity of an optimaUy doped Ba1-xKxFe2As2 （x = 0.4） single crystal is measured from room temperature down to 4 K. We study the temperature dependence of the in-plane infrared-active phonon at 251 em-1. This phonon exhibits a symmetric line shape in the optical conductivity, suggesting that the coupling between the phonon and the electronic background is weak. Upon cooling down, the frequency of this phonon continu- ously increases, following the conventional temperature dependence expected in the absence of a structural or magnetic transition. The intensity of this phonon is temperature independent within the measurement accuracy. These observa- tions indicate that the structural and magnetic phase transition might be completely suppressed by chemical doping in the optimally doped Bao.6Ko.4Fe2As2 compound.

Sizable Residual Quasiparticle Density of States Induced by Impurity Scattering Effect in Ba（Fe1-xCox）2As2 Single Crystals

Low-temperature specific heat Cp is measured on Ba（Fe1-xCox）2As2 single crystals in a wide doping region. A sizeable residual specific heat coefficient γo is observed in the low temperature limit of all samples. The specific heat jump near Tc, i.e. ΔCp/T／T_c, is also determined. It is found that -γo, ΔCp/T／T_c and Tc all share a similar evolution with doping. These can be well understood within the model of S± pairing symmetry when accounting for the cobalt-dopants as unitary scattering centers in the FeAs planes. Our results reveal a non-trivial impact of impurity scattering in FeAs-based.

Synthesis and properties of La1-xSrxNiO3 and La1-xSrxNiO2

Superconductivity has been realized in films of La_1-xSr_xNiO₂. Here we report synthesis and characterization of polycrystalline samples of La_1-xSr_xNiO₃ and La_1-xSr_xNiO₂ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2). Magnetization and resistivity measurements reveal that La_1-xSr_xNiO₃ are paramagnetic metal and La_1-xSr_xNiO₂ exhibit an insulating behavior. Superconductivity is not detected in bulk samples of La_1-xSr_xNiO₂. The absence of superconductivity in bulk La_1-xSr_xNiO₂ may be due to the generation of hydroxide during reduction, a small amount of nickel impurity, or incomplete reduction of apical oxygen. The effect of interface in films of La_1-xSr_xNiO₂ may also play a role for superconductivity.
