Field-induced nematic-like magnetic transition in an iron pnictide superconductor, Ca(PtAs)((FePt)As)
We report a high magnetic field study up to 55 T of the nearly optimally
doped iron-pnictide superconductor Ca(PtAs)
((FePt)As) (x=0.078(6)) with a Tc 10 K using
magnetic torque, tunnel diode oscillator technique and transport measurements.
We determine the superconducting phase diagram, revealing an anisotropy of the
irreversibility field up to a factor of 10 near Tc and signatures of multiband
superconductivity. Unexpectedly, we find a spin-flop like anomaly in magnetic
torque at 22 T, when the magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the ab
planes, which becomes significantly more pronounced as the temperature is
lowered to 0.33 K. As our superconducting sample lies well outside the
antiferromagnetic region of the phase diagram, the observed field-induced
transition in torque indicates a spin-flop transition not of long-range ordered
moments, but of nematic-like antiferromagnetic fluctuations.Comment: Latex, 4 figure
Generalized Ladder Operators for Shape-invariant Potentials
A general form for ladder operators is used to construct a method to solve
bound-state Schr\"odinger equations. The characteristics of supersymmetry and
shape invariance of the system are the start point of the approach. To show the
elegance and the utility of the method we use it to obtain energy spectra and
eigenfunctions for the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator and Morse potentials
and for the radial harmonic oscillator and Coulomb potentials.Comment: in Revte

Upper critical magnetic field in K0.83Fe1.83Se2 and Eu0.5K0.5Fe2As2 single crystals
The H-T phase diagrams of single crystalline electron-doped K0.83Fe1.83Se2
(KFS1), K0.8Fe2Se2 (KFS2) and hole-doped Eu0.5K0.5Fe2As2 (EKFA) have been
deduced from tunnel diode oscillator-based contactless measurements in pulsed
magnetic fields up to 57 T for the inter-plane (H//c) and in-plane (H//ab)
directions. The temperature dependence of the upper critical magnetic field
Hc2(T) relevant to EFKA is accounted for by the Pauli model including an
anisotropic Pauli paramagnetic contribution (\mu_BHp=114 T for H//ab and 86 T
for H//c). This is also the case of KFS1 and KFS2 for H//ab whereas a
significant upward curvature, accounted for by a two-gap model, is observed for
H//c. Despite the presence of antiferromagnetic lattice order within the
superconducting state of the studied compounds, no influence of magnetic
ordering on the temperature dependence of Hc2(T) is observed.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Quenched nematic criticality separating two superconducting domes in an iron-based superconductor under pressure
The nematic electronic state and its associated nematic critical fluctuations
have emerged as potential candidates for superconducting pairing in various
unconventional superconductors. However, in most materials their coexistence
with other magnetically-ordered phases poses significant challenges in
establishing their importance. Here, by combining chemical and hydrostatic
physical pressure in FeSeS, we provide a unique access to a
clean nematic quantum phase transition in the absence of a long-range magnetic
order. We find that in the proximity of the nematic phase transition, there is
an unusual non-Fermi liquid behavior in resistivity at high temperatures that
evolves into a Fermi liquid behaviour at the lowest temperatures. From quantum
oscillations in high magnetic fields, we trace the evolution of the Fermi
surface and electronic correlations as a function of applied pressure. We
detect experimentally a Lifshitz transition that separates two distinct
superconducting regions: one emerging from the nematic electronic phase with a
small Fermi surface and strong electronic correlations and the other one with a
large Fermi surface and weak correlations that promotes nesting and
stabilization of a magnetically-ordered phase at high pressures. The lack of
mass divergence suggests that the nematic critical fluctuations are quenched by
the strong coupling to the lattice. This establishes that superconductivity is
not enhanced at the nematic quantum phase transition in the absence of magnetic
order.Comment: 4 figures, 9 page
