摘要:

Ba(Ni $_{1-x}$ Co $_x$)$_2$ As $_2$是磷属元素化物高温超导体Ba(Fe $_{1-x}$ Co $_x$)$_2$ As $_2$的结构同系物,其中Fe原子被Ni取代。超导性在该系统中被高度抑制,达到最大值$T_c$ = 2.3 K,而在其铁基表亲中为24 K,并且这种$T_c$抑制的起源尚不清楚。利用X射线散射,我们表明,Ba(Ni $_{1-x}$ Co $_x$)$_2$ As $_2$在其三斜相变表现出单向电荷密度波(CDW)。CDW是无公度的,表现出相当大的晶格畸变,并伴随着光电发射中$α$费米表面口袋的出现[B. Zhou等人,Phys.Rev.B83,035110(2011)],表明其通过非常规机制形成。Co掺杂抑制了CDW,平行于铁基超导体中的反铁磁性行为。我们的研究表明,磷属元素化物超导体可以表现出竞争的CDW秩序,这可能是在该系统中的$T_c$抑制的起源。

英文摘要:

Ba(Ni$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ is a structural homologue of the pnictide high temperature superconductor, Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$As$_2$, in which the Fe atoms are replaced by Ni. Superconductivity is highly suppressed in this system, reaching a maximum $T_c$ = 2.3 K, compared to 24 K in its iron-based cousin, and the origin of this $T_c$ suppression is not known. Using x-ray scattering, we show that Ba(Ni$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ exhibits a unidirectional charge density wave (CDW) at its triclinic phase transition. The CDW is incommensurate, exhibits a sizable lattice distortion, and is accompanied by the appearance of $α$ Fermi surface pockets in photoemission [B. Zhou et al., Phys. Rev. B 83, 035110 (2011)], suggesting it forms by an unconventional mechanism. Co doping suppresses the CDW, paralleling the behavior of antiferromagnetism in iron-based superconductors. Our study demonstrates that pnictide superconductors can exhibit competing CDW order, which may be the origin of $T_c$ suppression in this system.
