Abstract
Fe(Se/Te) family compounds are very important among iron-based superconductors. To explore the modification of their physical properties, Li-doped FeSe[Formula: see text]Te[Formula: see text] polycrystalline samples were prepared by using sintering method with metal Li as the dopant. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman scattering indicated that the lattice parameter c and Raman peaks change systematically with increasing Li content, suggesting Li atoms have entered the lattice. Magnetization and electrical transport measurements showed the type-II superconductor behavior. The upper critical field increased with increasing Li doping concentration, while the coherence length decreased with increasing dopant concentration. Li-doping generally improved the superconductivity, including the uniformity of superconducting contents. The thermally activated flux-flow (TAFF) activation energy also increased with increasing dopant concentration. The critical current densities were measured and the flux pinning mechanism and its change with doping were analyzed.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 1987, the International Journal of Modern Physics B covers the most important aspects and the latest developments in Condensed Matter Physics, Statistical Physics, as well as Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics. A strong emphasis is placed on topics of current interest, such as cold atoms and molecules, new topological materials and phases, and novel low dimensional materials. One unique feature of this journal is its review section which contains articles with permanent research value besides the state-of-the-art research work in the relevant subject areas.
