The effects of pressure generated in a liquid medium, clamp, pressure cell on the in-plane and c-axis resistance, temperature-dependent Hall coefficient and low temperature, magnetoresistance in CaFe2As2 are presented. The T - P phase diagram, including the observation of a complete superconducting transition in resistivity, delineated in earlier studies is found to be highly reproducible. The Hall resistivity and low temperature magnetoresistance are sensitive to different states/phases observed in CaFe2As2. Auxiliary measurements under uniaxial, c-axis, pressure are in general agreement with the liquid medium clamp cell results with some difference in critical pressure values and pressure derivatives. The data may be viewed as supporting the potential importance of non-hydrostatic components of pressure in inducing superconductivity in CaFe2As2.

We report magnetoresistivity measurements on strongly underdoped YBa_2Cu_3O_x (x=6.25, 6.36) single crystals in applied magnetic fields H || c-axis. We identify two different contributions to both in-plane and out-of-plane magnetoresistivities. The f
irst contribution has the same sign as the temperature coefficient of the resistivity partial ln(rho_i)/partial T (i={c,ab}). This contribution reflects the incoherent nature of the out-of-plane transport. The second contribution is positive, quadratic in field, with an onset temperature that correlates to the antiferromagnetic ordering.
We studied the effect of hydrostatic pressure (P) on the structural phase transitions and superconductivity in the ternary and pseudo-ternary iron arsenides CaFe2As2, BaFe2As2, and (Ba0.55K0.45)Fe2As2, by means of measurements of electrical resistivi
ty (rho) in the 1.8 - 300 K temperature (T) range, pressures up to 20 kbar, and magnetic fields up to 9 T. CaFe2As2 and BaFe2As2 (lightly doped with Sn) display structural phase transitions near 170 K and 85 K, respectively, and do not exhibit superconductivity in ambient pressure, while K-doped (Ba0.55K0.45)Fe2As2 is superconducting for T < 30 K. The effect of pressure on BaFe2As2 is to shift the onset of the crystallographic transformation down in temperature at the rate of about -1.04 K/kbar, while shifting the whole rho(T) curves downward, whereas its effect on superconducting (Ba0.55K0.45)Fe2As2 is to shift the onset of superconductivity to lower temperatures at the rate of about -0.21 K/kbar. The effect of pressure on CaFe2As2 is first to suppress the crystallographic transformation and induce superconductivity with onset near 12 K very rapidly, i.e., for P < 5 kbar. However, higher pressures bring about another phase transformation characterized by reduced resistivity, and the suppression of superconductivity, confining superconductivity to a narrow pressure dome centered near 5 kbar. Upper critical field (Hc2) data in (Ba0.55K0.45)Fe2As2 and CaFe2As2 are discussed.
FeSe$_{1-x}$Te$_{x}$ superconductors manifest some intriguing electronic properties depending on the value of $x$. In FeSe single crystal, the nematic phase and Dirac band structure have been observed, while topological surface superconductivity with
the Majorana bound state was found in the crystal of $x sim 0.55$. Therefore, the electronic properties of single crystals with $0 < x leq 0.5$ are crucial for probing the evolution of those intriguing properties as well as their relations. However, this study is still left blank due to the lack of single crystals because of phase separation. Here, we report the synthesis, magnetization, electronic transport properties, and hydrostatic pressure effect of FeSe$_{0.67}$Te$_{0.33}$ single crystals free of phase separation. A structural (nematic) transition is visible at $T_{s} = 39$ K, below which the resistivity exhibits a Fermi-liquid behavior. Analysis of upper critical fields suggests that spin-paramagnetic effect should be taken into account for both $H parallel c$ axis and $H parallel ab$ plane. A crossover from the low-$H$ quadratic to the high-$H$ quasi-linear behavior is observed in the magnetoresistance, signifying the possible existence of Dirac-cone state. Besides, the strong temperature dependence of Hall coefficient, violation of (modified) Kohlers rule, and two-band model analysis indicate the multiband effects in FeSe$_{0.67}$Te$_{0.33}$ single crystals. Hydrostatic pressure measurements reveal that $T_{s}$ is quickly suppressed with pressure while $T_{c}$ is monotonically increased up to 2.31 GPa, indicating the competition between nematicity and superconductivity. No signature of magnetic order that has been detected in FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_{x}$ is observed. Our findings fill up the blank of the knowledge on the basic properties of FeSe$_{1-x}$Te$_{x}$ system with low-Te concentrations.
We report on the crystal growth and characterization of ABi3 (A=Ba,Sr) superconductors. Single crystals of both compounds were grown by the self-flux technique. BaBi3 crystallized in a tetragonal structure with space group P4/mmm and SrBi3 in a cubic
structure with space group Pm-3m. Superconductivity at Tc = 6.0 K for BaBi3 and Tc = 5.6 K for SrBi3 have been confirmed through dc magnetic susceptibility and electrical transport measurements. The dc magnetic susceptibility under hydrostatic pressure shows a positive pressure coefficient of dTc/dP = 1.22 K/GPa for BaBi3 and a negative pressure coefficient of dTc/dP = -0.48 K/GPa for SrBi3. The normal state electrical resistivity shows that both compounds are highly metallic in nature. The upper critical fields Hc2 evaluated by resistivity under magnetic fields $rho(T,H)$ are 22 kOe for BaBi3 and 2.9 kOe for SrBi3. A specific heat jump of $Delta Ce/gamma Tc = 1.05$ suggests weak coupling superconductivity in BaBi3, whereas $Delta Ce/gamma Tc = 2.08$ for SrBi3 is higher than the BCS theory value of 1.43, indicating a strong coupling superconductor.
Magnetic correlations in the paramagnetic phase of CaFe2As2 (T_N=172 K) have been examined by means of inelastic neutron scattering from 180 K (~ 1.05 T_N) up to 300 K (~1.8 T_N). Despite the first-order nature of the magnetic ordering, strong but sh
ort-range antiferromagnetic (AFM) correlations are clearly observed. These correlations, which consist of quasi-elastic scattering centered at the wavevector Q_{AFM} of the low-temperature AFM structure, are observed up to the highest measured temperature of 300 K and at high energy transfer (E> 60 meV). The L dependence of the scattering implies rather weak interlayer coupling in the tetragonal c-direction corresponding to nearly two-dimensional fluctuations in the (ab) plane. The spin correlation lengths within the Fe layer are found to be anisotropic, consistent with underlying fluctuations of the AFM stripe structure. Similar to the cobalt doped superconducting BaFe2As2 compounds, these experimental features can be adequately reproduced by a scattering model that describes short-range anisotropic spin correlations with overdamped spin dynamics.
