The systematic pressure shifts of T c were investigated in the whole phase diagram of the FeAs-based superconducting compound K x Sr 1−x Fe 2 As 2 . Different regions, arising from corresponding responses of T c to pressure ͑dT c / dp Ͼ 0, Ӎ0, or Ͻ0͒, can be clearly distinguished. This reveals an interesting similarity of the FeAs superconductors and the high-T c cuprates. This behavior is a manifestation of the layered structure of the FeAs compounds and the pressure-induced charge transfer between the ͑Fe 2 As 2 ͒ and ͑K/Sr͒ layers. The coexistence of superconductivity and spin-density wave behavior were also observed, and the pressure effects on the latter is explored. The discovery of superconductivity in quaternary rareearth transition-metal oxypnictides ͑ROTPn, where R = rare earth, T = transition metal, and Pn= pnictogen͒ with transition temperatures up to 26 K in F-substituted LaOFeAs and even higher T c 's in compounds with smaller R ions have initiated immense excitement and stimulated renewed activities in high-T c superconductivity research.
