Optical and Hidden Transport Properties of BaFe${}_{1.91}$Ni${}_{0.09}$As${}_2$ Film

Abstract

Optical spectroscopy was used to study the electrodynamics and hidden transport properties of a BaFe${}_{1.91}$Ni${}_{0.09}$As${}_2$ thin superconducting film. We analyzed the normal state data using a Drude-Lorentz model with two Drude components: one narrow ($D_1$) and another broad one ($D_2$). In the superconducting state, two gaps with $2{\Delta }_0^{(2)}/k_B{T}_c=1.9$--2.0 and $2{\Delta }_0^{(1)}/k_B{T}_c=4.0$--4.3 are formed from the narrow component $D_1$ while the broad component $D_2$ remains ungapped. The calculated total DC resistivity of the film and the low-temperature scattering rate for the narrow Drude component show a hidden Fermi-liquid behavior. The change of total electron-boson coupling (${\lambda }_{tot}$) and representative energy (${\Omega }_0$) in the normal state with respect to the superconducting state is typical of other iron-based materials as well as high-temperature superconducting (HTSC) cuprates.
