Strong Pauli paramagnetic effect in the upper critical field of KCa2Fe4As4F2

Recently, 12442 system of Fe-based superconductors has attracted considerable attention owing to its unique double-Fe As-layer structure. A steep increase in the in-plane upper critical field with cooling has been observed near the superconducting transition temperature, Tc, in KCa2Fe4As4F2 single crystals. Herein, we report a high-field investigation on upper critical field of this material over a wide temperature range, and both out-of-plane(H∥c, Hc2c) and in-plane(H∥ab, Hc2ab ) directions have been measured.A sublinear temperature-dependent behavior is observed for the out-of-plane Hc2c , whereas strong convex curvature with cooling is observed for the in-plane Hc2ab . Such behaviors could not be described by the conventional Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg(WHH) model. The data analysis based on the WHH model by considering the spin aspects reveals a large Maki parameter α=9,indicating that the in-plane upper critical field is affected by a very strong Pauli paramagnetic effect.     

In situ annealing effects on magnetic properties and variable-range hopping of iron-based ladder material BaFe2S3

正All iron-based superconductors,regardless of their detailed crystal structure,share the same conductive Fe_2X_2(X=As,P,Se,and S)layers as the crucial structural unit[1-8].In the Fe_2X_2 layers,edge-shared FeX_4 tetrahedra form a square lattice in quasi-two-dimensional(quasi-2D)planes.One may wonder what kind of properties will be manifested in the quasi-one-dimensional(quasi-1D)counterparts exhibiting an identical coordination as the above-mentioned quasi-2D     

Low temperature specific heat of 12442-type KCa2Fe4As4F2 single crystals

The Hubble constant H_0 represents the expansion rate of the Universe at present and is closely related to the age of the Universe.The accurate measurement of Hubble constant is crucial for modern cosmology.However,different cosmological observations give diverse values of Hubble constant in literature.Up to now,there are two methods to measure the Hubble constant.One is to directly measure the Hubble constant based on distance ladder estimates of Cepheids and so on.The other is to globally fit the Hubble constant under the assumption of a cosmological model,for example the "standard" ACDM model.Adopting the low-redshift observational datasets,including the Pantheon sample of Type Ⅰa supernovae,baryon acoustic oscillation measurements,and the tomographic Alcock-Paczynski method,we determine the Hubble constant to be 67.95_(-1.03)~(+0.78),69.81_(-2.70)~(+2.22) and66.75_(-4.23)~(+3.42) km s~(-1) Mpc~(-1) at 68% confidence level in the △CDM,wCDM and W_0W_a CDM models,respectively.Compared to the Hubble constant given by Riess et al.in 2019,we conclude that the new physics beyond the standard △CDM model is needed if all of these datasets are reliable.
