Iron-based superconductors: Current status of materials and pairing mechanism

H Hosono, K Kuroki - Physica C: Superconductivity and its Applications, 2015 - Elsevier
Since the discovery of high T c iron-based superconductors in early 2008, more than 15,000
papers have been published as a result of intensive research. This paper describes the …

High-temperature superconductivity in iron-based materials

J Paglione, RL Greene - Nature physics, 2010 - nature.com
The surprising discovery of superconductivity in layered iron-based materials, with transition
temperatures climbing as high as 55 K, has led to thousands of publications on this subject …

Manifesto for a higher Tc

DN Basov, AV Chubukov - Nature Physics, 2011 - nature.com
The term'high-temperature superconductor'used to refer only to copper-based compounds—
now, iron-based pnictides have entered the frame. The comparison of these two types of …

Competing order and nature of the pairing state in the iron pnictides

RM Fernandes, J Schmalian - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and …, 2010 - APS
We show that the competition between magnetism and superconductivity can be used to
determine the pairing state in the iron arsenides. To this end we demonstrate that the …

Unconventional pairing in the iron arsenide superconductors

RM Fernandes, DK Pratt, W Tian, J Zarestky… - Physical Review B …, 2010 - APS
We use magnetic long-range order as a tool to probe the Cooper-pair wave function in the
iron arsenide superconductors. We show theoretically that antiferromagnetism and …

Pressure Induced Static Magnetic Order in Superconducting

We report on a detailed investigation of the electronic phase diagram of FeSe 1-x under
pressures up to 1.4 GPa by means of ac magnetization and muon-spin rotation. At a …

Superconductivity and spin-density waves in multiband metals

AB Vorontsov, MG Vavilov, AV Chubukov - Physical Review B—Condensed …, 2010 - APS
We present a detailed description of two-band quasi-two-dimensional metals with s-wave
superconducting (SC) and antiferromagnetic spin-density-wave (SDW) correlations. We …

[HTML][HTML] Universal self-field critical current for thin-film superconductors

EF Talantsev, JL Tallon - Nature communications, 2015 - nature.com
For any practical superconductor the magnitude of the critical current density, J c, is crucially
important. It sets the upper limit for current in the conductor. Usually J c falls rapidly with …

Atomic coexistence of superconductivity and incommensurate magnetic order in the pnictide

Y Laplace, J Bobroff, F Rullier-Albenque, D Colson… - Physical Review B …, 2009 - APS
A 75 s nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and susceptiblity were measured in a Ba (Fe 1−
x Co x) 2 As 2 single crystal for x= 6%. NMR spectra and relaxation rates allow to show that …
