Outline of Research at the Start |
本研究では反強磁性相から超伝導転移を起こすホールドープ型鉄系超伝導体Ba_{1-x}K_{x}Fe_{2}As_{2}に対する中性子散乱実験を駆使する事で、反強磁性と超伝導との共存域における新奇物性の解明を目指す。特にJ-PARCの先進的な非弾性分光装置を用いた測定を行い、従来の研究で見過ごされてきたスピン揺らぎの3次元的変調構造の観測を試み、超伝導-磁気秩序の共存域におけるスピン揺らぎと超伝導ギャップ構造の理解を目指す。

Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The discovery of high-Tc superconductivity in iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) has marked the beginning of a new era in superconductivity research. Many of the properties in FeSCs arise from an interplay of spin, orbital, and lattice degrees of freedom. A fundamental challenge in this context is to understand how such a complex interplay gives rise to emergent phenomena in FeSCs. Here, we performed extensive inelastic x-ray and neutron scattering studies that allow one to investigate the dynamical aspects of spin and lattice degrees of freedom. The results obtained in this study include (1) the effect of magnetism on phonon dispersion, (2) the observation of the multiple superconducting gaps in the neutron scattering response, and (3) the three-dimensional intensity modulation of the dynamical spin susceptibility and its relation to the Fermi surface nesting. Our work highlights the potential to use x-ray and neutron spectroscopy to investigate the complex electronic state of FeSCs.
