We report the phase diagram for the superconducting system (${^{7}}$Li${_{1-x}}$Fe${_{x}}$OD)FeSe and contrast it with that of (Li${_{1-x}}$Fe${_{x}}$OH)FeSe both in single crystal and powder forms. Samples were prepared via hydrothermal methods and characterized with laboratory and synchrotron X-ray diffraction, high-resolution neutron powder diffraction (NPD), and high intensity NPD. We find a correlation between the tetragonality of the unit cell parameters and the critical temperature, $T_{c}$, which is indicative of the effects of charge doping on the lattice and formation of iron vacancies in the FeSe layer. We observe no appreciable isotope effect on the maximum $T_{c}$ in substituting H by by D. The NPD measurements definitively rule out an antiferromagnetic ordering in the non-superconducting (Li${_{1-x}}$Fe${_{x}}$OD)FeSe samples below 120 K, which has been reported in non-superconducting (Li${_{1-x}}$Fe${_{x}}$OH)FeSe.$^{1}$ A likely explanation for the observed antiferromagnetic transition in (Li${_{1-x}}$Fe${_{x}}$OH)FeSe samples is the formation of impurities during their preparation such as Fe${_{3}}$O${_{4}}$ and LixFeO2, which express a charge ordering transition known as the Verwey transition near 120 K. The concentration of these oxide impurities is found to be dependent on the concentration of the lithium hydroxide reagent and the use of H${_{2}}$O vs. D${_{2}}$O as the solvent during synthesis. We also describe the reaction conditions that lead to some of our superconducting samples to exhibit ferromagnetism below $T_{c}$.

The (Li$_{1-x}$Fe$_{x}$OH)FeSe superconductor has been suspected to exhibit long-range magnetic ordering due to Fe substitution in the LiOH layer. However, no direct observation such as magnetic reflection from neutron diffraction has be reported. He
re, we use a chemical design strategy to manipulate the doping level of transition metals in the LiOH layer to tune the magnetic properties of the (Li$_{1-x-y}$Fe$_{x}$Mn$_{y}$OD)FeSe system. We find Mn doping exclusively replaces Li in the hydroxide layer resulting in enhanced magnetization in the (Li$_{0.876}$Fe$_{0.062}$Mn$_{0.062}$OD)FeSe superconductor without significantly altering the superconducting behavior as resolved by magnetic susceptibility and electrical/thermal transport measurements. As a result, long-range magnetic ordering was observed below 12 K with neutron diffraction measurements. This work has implications for the design of magnetic superconductors for the fundamental understanding of superconductivity and magnetism in the iron chalcogenide system as well as exploitation as functional materials for next generation devices.
We present the results of paramagnetic LDA band structure calculations: band dispersions, densities of states and Fermi surfaces, for the new iron based high-temperature superconductor LiOHFeSe. Main structural motif providing bands in the vicinity o
f the Fermi level is FeSe layer which is isostructural to the bulk FeSe prototype superconductor. The bands crossing the Fermi level and Fermi surfaces of the new compound are typical for other iron based superconductors. Experimentally it was shown that introduction of Fe ions into LiOH layer gives rise to ferromagnetic ordering of the Fe ions at T$_C$=10K. To study magnetic properties of [Li$_{0.8}$Fe$_{0.2}$OH]FeSe system we have performed LSDA calculations for $sqrt 5 times sqrt 5$ superlattice and found ferromagnetism within the Li$_4$Fe(OH) layer. To estimate the Curie temperature we obtained Fe-Fe exchange interaction parameters for Heisenberg model from our LSDA calculations, leading to theoretical value of Curie temperature 10.4K in close agreement with experiment.
Superconducting [(Li(1-x)Fex)OH](Fe(1-y)Liy)Se (x ~ 0.2, y ~ 0.08) was synthesized by hydrothermal methods and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure contains anti-PbO type (Fe(1-y)Liy)Se layers separate
d by layers of (Li(1-x)Fex)OH. Electrical resistivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal superconductivity at 43 K. An anomaly in the diamagnetic shielding indicates ferromagnetic ordering near 10 K while superconductivity is retained. The ferromagnetism emerges from the iron atoms in the (Li(1-x)Fex)OH layer. Isothermal magnetization measurements confirm the superposition of ferromagnetic with superconducting hysteresis. The internal ferromagnetic field is larger than the lower, but smaller than the upper critical field of the superconductor, which gives evidence for a spontaneous vortex phase where both orders coexist. 57Fe-Mossbauer spectra, 7Li-NMR spectra, and muSR experiments consistently support this rare situation, especially in a bulk material where magnetism emerges from a 3d-element.
We report measurements of the London penetration depth [$Deltalambda(T)$] of the recently discovered iron-based superconductor (Li$_{1-x}$Fe$_x$)OHFeSe, in order to characterize the nature of the superconducting gap structure. At low temperatures, $D
eltalambda(T)$ displays nearly temperature independent behavior, indicating a fully open superconducting gap. We also analyze the superfluid density $rho_s(T)$ which cannot be well accounted for by a single-gap isotropic $s$-wave model but are consistent with either two-gaps, a model for the orbital selective $stimestau_3$ state or anisotropic $s$-wave superconductivity.
[(Li0.8Fe0.2)OH]FeS and the series [(Li0.8Fe0.2)OH]Fe(S1-xSex) (0<x<1) were synthesized by hydrothermal methods and characterized by X-ray single crystal and powder diffraction, EDX and chemical analysis. Selenium-rich compounds show the coexistence
of magnetic ordering with superconductivity known from the pure selenium compound. Sulphur doping decreases the critical temperature through chemical pressure until superconductivity is completely absent in [(Li0.8Fe0.2)OH]FeS, while the ferromagnetism in the [(Li0.8Fe0.2)OH] layers persists. The Li:Fe ratio in the hydroxide layer, and thus the charge transfer of 0.2 electrons from the hydroxide to the iron chalcogenide layers remains unchanged in [(Li0.8Fe0.2)OH]Fe(S1-xSex), which indicates that the chemical pressure effect of the smaller sulphide ions impedes superconductivity in [(Li0.8Fe0.2)OH]FeS
