Possible Superconducting Symmetry and Magnetic Correlations in K0.8Fe2Se2: A 77Se-NMR Study

Superconductivity 2011-04-13 v4

Abstract

We report ^77Se-NMR measurements in the recent discovered K_0.8Fe_2Se_2 with the superconducting transition temperature T_c=32 K. The characteristic point of this system is that the high density of state is located in the vicinity of the Fermi level. The comparison between Knight shift and nuclear spin lattice relaxation rate 1/T_1 shows that the antiferromagnetic spin correlation is not strong in this system, but it is reasonable to consider that its development toward low temperatures occurs. 1/T_1 in the superconducting state can be reproduced well by an s+- wave model, but a d wave model also roughly reproduces the data. Non exponential behavior in 1/T_1 at low temperatures disagrees with a single isotropic gap.
