Competing superconducting and magnetic order parameters and field-induced magnetism in electron doped Ba(FeCo)As
We have studied the magnetic and superconducting properties of
Ba(FeCo)As as a function of temperature and
external magnetic field using neutron scattering and muon spin rotation. Below
the superconducting transition temperature the magnetic and superconducting
order parameters coexist and compete. A magnetic field can significantly
enhance the magnetic scattering in the superconducting state, roughly doubling
the Bragg intensity at 13.5 T. We perform a microscopic modelling of the data
by use of a five-band Hamiltonian relevant to iron pnictides. In the
superconducting state, vortices can slow down and freeze spin fluctuations
locally. When such regions couple they result in a long-range ordered
antiferromagnetic phase producing the enhanced magnetic elastic scattering in
agreement with experiments.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figure
