摘要:

CaK(Fe $_{1-x}$ Ni $_{x}$)$_{4}$ As $_{4}$超导体类似于原型122型铁基材料,但具有明显较低对称性的晶体结构。这个家族拥有所谓的自旋涡旋晶体磁序的少数例子之一,这是一种保持四轴对称的非共线磁配置,与122型系统常见的正交共线条纹型磁配置形成对比。因此,在它的相图中完全不存在π阶。为了研究在这种情况下的电子涨落的演变,我们提出了弹性电阻和弹性模量测量CaK(Fe $_{1-x}$ Ni $_{x}$)$_{4}$作为$_{4}$($x = 0-0.05$)结合唯象模型和密度泛函理论。我们发现明确的实验签名相当大的波动,包括软化的杨氏模量$Y_{[110]}$和居里-外斯型发散的B2 g弹性电阻系数在CaK(Fe $_{0.951}$ Ni $_{0.049}$)$_4$作为$_4$。总的来说,这个系列中的电子涨落与空穴掺杂的Ba $_{1-x}$ K $_x$ Fe $_2$ As $_2$系列具有很强的相似性,包括替代引起的符号变化。我们的理论分析解决了1144型结构的特定晶体对称性在确定其磁基态和磁涨落上的影响。

英文摘要:

The CaK(Fe$_{1-x}$Ni$_{x}$)$_{4}$As$_{4}$ superconductors resemble the archetypal 122-type iron-based materials but have a crystal structure with distinctly lower symmetry. This family hosts one of the few examples of the so-called spin-vortex crystal magnetic order, a non-collinear magnetic configuration that preserves tetragonal symmetry, in contrast to the orthorhombic collinear stripe-type magnetic configuration common to the 122-type systems. Thus, nematic order is completely absent from its phase diagram. To investigate the evolution of nematic fluctuations in such a case, we present elastoresistance and elastic modulus measurements in CaK(Fe$_{1-x}$Ni$_{x}$)$_{4}$As$_{4}$ ($x = 0-0.05$) combined with phenomenological modeling and density functional theory. We find clear experimental signatures of considerable nematic fluctuations, including softening of the Young's modulus $Y_{[110]}$ and a Curie-Weiss type divergence of the B2g elastoresistance coefficient in CaK(Fe$_{0.951}$Ni$_{0.049}$)$_4$As$_4$. Overall, nematic fluctuations within this series bear strong similarities to the hole-doped Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ series, including a substitution-induced sign change. Our theoretical analysis addresses the effect of the specific crystal symmetry of the 1144-type structure in determining its magnetic ground state and on the nematic fluctuations.
