Research Abstract |
In this work, the electronic structures of SrFe2As2 and CeRhIn5 were studied under high pressure up to 8 GPa (80,000 bar) and at low temperatures down to 6 K using infrared spectroscopy. These compounds become superconducting under high pressure above 4 GPa (SrFe2As2) and 2 GPa (CeRhIn5), and have attracted a lot of recent interest from condensed matter physicists. To generate high pressure, a diamond anvil cell (DAC) was used, and to perform infrared spectroscopy on a small sample contained in DAC, the highly bright, infrared synchrotron radiation from SPring-8 was utilized. The measured results showed that the electronic structures of these compounds are strongly affected by the external pressure, which were analyzed in detail.
