In-plane electrical impedance as a probe for the electron nematicity of BaFe2As2
Source abstract
Abstract
In-plane electrical impedance has been examined in as-grown single crystals of BaFe2As2, one of the parent compounds of iron-based superconductors. From the results, it is found that the real part of the impeditivity, namely the AC resistivity, reveals the in-plane anisotropy of the material without any applied uniaxial strain. The imaginary part, i.e., the reactivity, also indicates strong in-plane anisotropy and is linearly dependent on the electrical frequency. Our study demonstrates that electrical impedance is a new and effective method of probing the electron nematicity of iron-based superconductors.
