Here we report on complementary measurements of specific heat, mag- netic susceptibility, resistivity measurements, Andreev spectroscopy, and synchrotron high pressure x-ray diffrac- tion measurements supplemented with theoretical calculations for BaPd2As2. Its superconducting properties are completely isotropic as demonstrated by the critical fields, which do not depend on the direction of the applied field. Under the application of high pressure, Tc is linearly suppressed, which is the typical behavior of classical phonon- mediated superconductors with some additional effect of a pressure-induced decrease in the electronic density of states and the electron-phonon coupling parameters. Structural changes in the layered BaPd2As2 have been studied by means of angle-dispersive diffraction in a diamond-anvil cell. At 12 GPa and 24.2 GPa we observed pressure induced lattice distortions manifesting as the discontinuity and, hence discontinuity in the Birch-Murnaghan equation of state. The bulk modulus is B0 = 40(6) GPa below 12 GPa and B0 = 142(3) GPa below 27.2 GPa. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevB.97.134508 I.

A spin density wave transition at 140 K is accompanied by a symmetry reduction to space group Fmmm and simultaneously by antiferromagnetic ordering. Hole-doping induces superconductivity in Ba1−xKxFe2As2 with a maximum Tc of 38 K at x ≈ 0.4. The upper critical fields approach 75 T with rather small anisotropy of Hc2. At low potassium concentrations (x ≤ 0.2), superconductivity apparently co-exists with the orthorhombic distorted and magnetically ordered phase. At doping levels x ≥ 0.3, the structural distortion and antiferromagnetic ordering is completely suppressed and the Tc is maximized. No magnetically ordered domains could be detected in optimally doped 57 Ba1−xKxFe2As2 (x ≥ 0.3) by Fe-Mössbauer spectroscopy in contrast µSR results obtained with single crystals. The magnetic hyperfine interactions investigated by 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy are discussed and compared to the ZrCuSiAs-type materials. 57 Keywords: BaFe2As2, Superconductivity, SDW anomaly, Fe-Mössbauer spectroscopy PACS: 74.10.+v, 74.25.Ha, 74.25.Dw, 74.62.Bf, 33.45.+x *Corresponding author.

(Dated: May 22, 2018) While the layered 122 iron arsenide superconductors are highly anisotropic, unconventional, and exhibit several forms of electronic orders that coexist or compete with superconductivity in different regions of their phase diagrams, we find in the absence of iron in the structure that the superconduct- ing characteristics of the end member BaPd2As2 are surprisingly conventional.

  • Antiferromagnetic Structure and Electronic Properties of Bacr2as2
    Antiferromagnetic structure and electronic properties of BaCr2As2 and BaCrFeAs2 Kai A. Filsinger,1 Walter Schnelle,1 Peter Adler,1 Gerhard H.

DFT-based calculations of the electronic structure evi- dence metallic antiferromagnetic ground states for both compounds. By powder neutron diffraction we confirm for BaCr2As2 a robust ordering in the antiferromagnetic G-type structure at TN = 580 K with µCr = 1.9 µB at T = 2 K. Anomalies in the lattice parameters point to magneto-structural cou- pling effects. In BaCrFeAs2 the Cr and Fe atoms randomly occupy the transition-metal site and 57 G-type order is found below 265 K with µCr/Fe = 1.1 µB. Fe M¨ossbauer spectroscopy demonstrates that only a small ordered moment is associated with the Fe atoms, in agreement with electronic structure calculations with µFe ∼ 0. The temperature dependence of the hyperfine field does not follow that of the total moments. Both compounds are metallic but show large enhancements of the linear specific heat coefficient γ with respect to the band structure values.
