Interplay of Superconductivity and Fermi-Liquid Transport in Rh-Doped CaFe2As2 with Lattice-Collapse Transition

arXiv:1109.1890 · doi:10.1143/JPSJ.80.103701

Abstract

Ca(FeRh)As undergoes successive phase transitions with increasing Rh doping in the 0 limit. The antiferromagnetic-metal phase with orthorhombic structure at 0.00 0.020 is driven to a superconducting phase with uncollapsed-tetragonal (ucT) structure at 0.020 0.024; a non-superconducting collapsed-tetragonal (cT) phase takes over at 0.024. The breakdown of Fermi-liquid transport is observed in the ucT phase above . In the adjacent cT phase, Fermi-liquid transport is restored along with a disappearance of superconductivity. This interplay of superconductivity and Fermi-liquid transport suggests the essential role of magnetic fluctuations in the emergence of superconductivity in doped CaFeAs.
