Charge-Stripe Order and Superconductivity in $\mathrm{I}{\mathrm{r}}_{1-\mathrm{x}}\mathrm{P}{\mathrm{t}}_{\mathrm{x}}\mathrm{T}{\mathrm{e}}_2$

Abstract

A combined resistivity and hard x-ray diffraction study of superconductivity and charge ordering in $\mathrm{I}{\mathrm{r}}_{1-\mathrm{x}}\mathrm{P}{\mathrm{t}}_{\mathrm{x}}\mathrm{T}{\mathrm{e}}_2$, as a function of Pt substitution and externally applied hydrostatic pressure, is presented. Experiments are focused on samples near the critical composition $x_c\sim 0.045$ where competition and switching between charge order and superconductivity is established. We show that charge order as a function of pressure in $\mathrm{I}{\mathrm{r}}_{0.95}\mathrm{P}{\mathrm{t}}_{0.05}\mathrm{T}{\mathrm{e}}_2$ is preempted - and hence triggered - by a structural transition. Charge ordering appears uniaxially along the short crystallographic (1,0,1) domain axis with a $(\frac{1}{5},0,\frac{1}{5})$ modulation. Based on these results we draw a charge-order phase diagram and discuss the relation between stripe ordering and superconductivity.
