We report quantum oscillation measurements that enable the direct observation of the Fermi surface of the low temperature ground state of ba122. From these measurements we characterize the low energy excitations, revealing that the Fermi surface is reconstructed in the antiferromagnetic state, but leaving itinerant electrons in its wake. The present measurements are consistent with a conventional band folding picture of the antiferromagnetic ground state, placing important limits on the topology and size of the Fermi surface.

We revisit the electronic structure of BaFe$_2$As$_2$, the archetypal parent compound of the Fe-based superconductors, using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Our high-resolution measurements of samples detwinned by the application o f a mechanical strain reveal a highly anisotropic 3D Fermi surface in the low temperature magnetic phase. By comparison of the observed dispersions with ab-initio calculations, we argue that overall it is magnetism, rather than orbital ordering, which is the dominant effect, reconstructing the electronic structure across the Fe 3d bandwidth. Finally, we measure band dispersions directly from within one domain without applying strain to the sample, by using the sub-micron focused beam spot of a nano-ARPES instrument.
We investigate coherent phonon oscillations of BaFe$_2$As$_2$ using optical pump-probe spectroscopy. Time-resolved optical reflectivity shows periodic modulations due to $A_{1g}$ coherent phonon of $c$-axis arsenic vibrations. Optical probe beams pol arized along the orthorhombic $a$- and $b$-axes reveal that the initial phase of coherent oscillations shows a systematic deviation as a function of temperature, although these oscillations arise from the same $c$-axis arsenic vibrations. The oscillation-phase remains anisotropic even in the tetragonal structure, reflecting a nematic response of BaFe$_2$As$_2$. Our study suggests that investigation on the phase of coherent phonon oscillations in optical reflectivity can offer unique evidence of a nematic order strongly coupled to a lattice instability.

Inelastic neutron scattering measurements have been performed to investigate the spin waves of the quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnetic ladder compound BaFe$_2$S$_3$, where a superconducting transition was observed under pressure [H. Takahashi {it et al.}, Nat. Mater. 14, 1008-1012 (2015); T. Yamauchi {it et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 246402 (2015)]. By fitting the spherically averaged experimental data collected on a powder sample to a Heisenberg Hamiltonian, we find that the one-dimensional antiferromagnetic ladder exhibits a strong nearest neighbor ferromagnetic exchange interaction ($SJ_R=-71pm4$ meV) along the rung direction, an antiferromagnetic $SJ_L=49pm3$ meV along the leg direction and a ferromagnetic $SJ_2=-15pm2$ meV along the diagonal direction. Our data demonstrate that the antiferromagnetic spin excitations are a common characteristic for the iron-based superconductors, while specific relative values for the exchange interactions do not appear to be unique for the parent states of the superconducting materials.

A series of 122 phase BaFe$_{2-x}$Ni$_x$As$_2$ ($x$ = 0, 0.055, 0.096, 0.18, 0.23) single crystals were grown by self flux method and a dome-like Ni doping dependence of superconducting transition temperature is discovered. The transition temperature $T_c^{on}$ reaches a maximum of 20.5 K at $x$ = 0.096, and it drops to below 4 K as $x$ $geq$ 0.23. The negative thermopower in the normal state indicates that electron-like charge carrier indeed dominates in this system. This Ni-doped system provides another example of superconductivity induced by electron doping in the 122 phase.

We present an atomic resolution scanning tunneling spectroscopy study of superconducting BaFe$_{1.8}$Co$_{0.2}$As$_2$ single crystals in magnetic fields up to $9 text{Tesla}$. At zero field, a single gap with coherence peaks at $overline{Delta}=6.25 text{meV}$ is observed in the density of states. At $9 text{T}$ and $6 text{T}$, we image a disordered vortex lattice, consistent with isotropic, single flux quantum vortices. Vortex locations are uncorrelated with strong scattering surface impurities, demonstrating bulk pinning. The vortex-induced sub-gap density of states fits an exponential decay from the vortex center, from which we extract a coherence length $xi=27.6pm 2.9 text{AA}$, corresponding to an upper critical field $H_{c2}=43 text{T}$.
