Anisotropic superconductivity of Ca1−xLaxFeAs2(x∼ 0.18) single crystal

Abstract: Anisotropic superconducting properties including the upper critical field Hc2, thermal activation energy U0, and critical current density Jc are systematically studied in a large Ca1−xLaxFeAs2 single crystal (x ∼ 0.18). The obtained Hc2 bears a moderate anisotropy γ of approximately 2–4.2, located between those of “122” Ba1−xKxFe2As2 (1 < γ < 2) and “1111” NdFeAsO1−xFx (5 < γ < 9.2). Both the magnitude of U0 and its field dependence are very similar to those of NdFeAsO1−xFx, also indicating anisotropic superco… Show more

“…1(a) illustrates the sketch of the crystal structure of a typical Ca 1−x La x FeAs 2 superconductor, containing alternately stacked FeAs and arsenic zigzag bond layers. This compound keeps the monoclinic structure, different from the common tetragonal or orthotropic crystal structures of most iron-based superconductors 8,14 . In Fig.…”

“…Our findings present the compelling support to the theoretical prediction that the 112-type iron-based superconductors indeed host the topological nontrivial bands originating from the unique zigzag As chain. High-quality single crystals with nominal composition Ca 0.9 La 0.1 FeAs 2 were synthesized using the flux method as descried in previous report [28][29][30][31] . Fig.…”
