The appearance of static magnetism, nanoscopically coexisting with superconductivity, is shown to be a general feature of optimally electron-doped LFe1-xRuxAsO1-yFy superconductors (L represents a lanthanide ion) upon isovalent substitution of Fe by Ru.

Abstract
The appearance of static magnetism, nanoscopically coexisting with superconductivity, is shown to be a general feature of optimally electron-doped LFe1-xRuxAsO1-yFy superconductors (L represents a lanthanide ion) upon isovalent substitution of Fe by Ru. The magnetic ordering temperature TN and the magnitude of the internal field display a domelike dependence on x, peaked around x=1/4, with higher TN values for those materials characterized by a larger z cell coordinate of As. Remarkably, the latter are also those with the highest superconducting transition temperatures (Tc) for x=0. The reduction of Tc(x) is found to be significant in the x region of the phase diagram where the static magnetism develops. Upon increasing the Ru content superconductivity eventually disappears, but only at x?0.6.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
