Observation of Raman active phonon with Fano lineshape in quasi-one-dimensional superconductor KCrAs

arXiv:1506.01121 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.92.060502

Abstract

We performed a polarized Raman scattering study of quasi-one-dimensional superconductor KCrAs. We detect two A phonons and three E phonons. One of the A modes exhibits a nearly temperature-independent Fano lineshape. Based on our first-principles calculations, we ascribe this mode to the in-phase vibrations of Cr atoms within one layer. This observation strongly suggests that the magnetic fluctuations in KCrAs are coupled to the electronic structure \emph{via} the lattice.
