Stoichiometry and Superconductivity in Fe Chalcogenides
Rezime
I will outline some recent developments in iron based chalcogenide
superconductors. Selected single crystal thermodynamic, transport and
magnetic characterization results will be presented as well as their
connection with stoichiometry and other key structural parameters that
have significant influence on magnetic and superconducting states.
Physical properties of binary Fe based superconductors will be focused
on upper critical field behavior in high magnetic fieds [1-3]. Single
crystal alloys KxFe2-ySe2-zSz offer valuable insight into the strength
of electronic correlations in the normal state and structural
characteristics associated with superconductivity. I will discuss the
evolution of the superconducting and magnetic ground states as a
function of sulfur concentration z and some noticeable changes in the
average and local crystal structure associated with this [4-7]. The
superconductivity persists with relatively high Tc even when
electronic correlations in the normal state are greatly reduced. The
results for z = 0 will be compared with other experimental techniques
that probe nanoscale phase separation and degree of vacancy order
[8-9]. It will be shown that local structure and population of
particular Fe sites is rather important for obtaining the bulk
superconducting phase. Superconducting volume fraction and homogeneity
of superconducting phase is in direct competition with Fe vacancy
order [10]. References: [1] Phys. Rev. B 81, 094518 (2010), [2] Phys.
