We examined doping effect of 3d transition metal elements (TM: Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, and Cu) at the Fe site of a quaternary fluoroarsenide CaFeAsF, an analogue of 1111-type parent compound LaFeAsO. The anomaly at ~120 K observed in resistivity…

Compounds of Sr1-xLaxFe2As2 were synthesized by solid state reaction at 1273 K, under pressures of 2 or 3 GPa. The Sr1-xLaxFe2As2 phase was dominant up to x = 0.5, and superconductivity was observed at $x \ge 0.2$. A maximum critical…

EuFe2As2 is a member of the ternary iron arsenide family. Similar to BaFe2As2 and SrFe2As2, EuFe2As2 exhibits a clear anomaly in resistivity near 200 K. It suggests that EuFe2As2 is another promising parent compound in which…
