Pressure-induced shift of T${}_c$ in K${}_x$Sr${}_{1-x}$Fe${}_2$As${}_2$ (x=0.2, 0.4, 0.7): Analogy to the high-T${}_c$ cuprate superconductors

Abstract

The systematic pressure shifts of T_c were investigated in the whole phase diagram of the FeAs-based superconducting compound K_xSr_{1-x}Fe_2As_2. Different regions, arising from corresponding responses of T${}_c$ to pressure (dT_c/dp>0, =0, or <0), can be clearly distinguished. This reveals an interesting similarity of the FeAs superconductors and the high-T_c cuprates. This behavior is a manifestation of the layered structure of the FeAs compounds and the pressure-induced charge transfer between the (Fe_2As_2) and (K/Sr) layers. The coexistence of superconductivity and spin-density wave behavior were also observed, and the pressure effects on the latter is explored.
