The anomalous Hall effect soars when Dirac quasiparticles meet frustrated magnetism.
Tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural phase transition at 90 K in the superconductor Fe(1.01)Se.
2009
In this Letter we show that superconducting ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{1.01}\mathrm{Se}$ undergoes a structural transition at 90 K from a tetragonal to an orthorhombic phase but that nonsuperconducting ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{1.03}\mathrm{Se}$ does not. High resolution electron microscopy at low temperatures further reveals an unexpected additional modulation of the crystal structure of the superconducting phase that involves displacements of the Fe atoms, and that the nonsuperconducting composition shows a different, complex nanometer-scale structural modulation. Finally, we show that magnetism is not the driving force for the phase transition in the superconducting phase.
Density of Phonon States in Superconducting FeSe as a Function of Temperature and Pressure
2010
The temperature and pressure dependence of the partial density of phonon states (phonon-DOS) of iron atoms in superconducting ${\text{Fe}}_{1.01}\text{Se}$ was studied by $^{57}\text{F}\text{e}$ nuclear inelastic scattering. The high-energy resolution allows for a detailed observation of spectral properties. A sharpening of the optical phonon modes and shift of all spectral features toward higher energies by $\ensuremath{\sim}4\mathrm{%}$ with decreasing temperature from 296 to 10 K was found. However, no detectable change at the tetragonal--orthorhombic phase transition around 100 K was observed. Application of a pressure of 6.7 GPa, connected with an increase in the superconducting temper…
Extreme sensitivity of superconductivity to stoichiometry in Fe1+?Se
2009
The recently discovered iron arsenide superconductors appear to display a universal set of characteristic features, including proximity to a magnetically ordered state and robustness of the superconductivity in the presence of disorder. Here we show that superconductivity in Fe1+?Se, which can be considered the parent compound of the superconducting arsenide family, is destroyed by very small changes in stoichiometry. Further, we show that nonsuperconducting Fe1+?Se is not magnetically ordered down to 5 K. These results suggest that robust superconductivity and immediate instability against an ordered magnetic state should not be considered as intrinsic characteristics of iron-based superco…
