Abstract

The emergence of the nematic order and fluctuations has been discussed as a central issue in Fe-based superconductors. To clarify the origin of the nematicity, we focus on the shear modulus and the Raman quadrupole susceptibility . Due to the Aslamazov-Larkin vertex correction, the nematic-type orbital fluctuations are induced, and they enhances both and strongly. However, remains finite even at the structure transition temperature , because of the absence of the band Jahn-Teller effect and the Pauli (=intra-band) contribution, as proved in terms of the linear response theory. The present study clarifies that origin of the nematicity in Fe-based superconductors is the nematic-orbital order/fluctuations.
