We report the effect of Ni doping on superconductivity of FeSe0.5Te0.5. The single crystal samples of series Fe1-xNixSe0.5Te0.5 (x=0.0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, 0.10 and 0.20) are synthesized via vacuum shield solid state reaction route and high temperature heating followed by slow cooling. All the crystals of Fe1-xNixSe0.5Te0.5 series with x up to 0.20, i.e., 20% substitution of Ni at Fe site are crystallized in single phase tetragonal structure with space group P4/nmm. The electrical resistivity measurements revealed that Tc decreases fast with increase of Ni concentration in Fe1-xNixSe0.5Te0.5. Namely the superconducting transition temperature (Tc) being defined as resistivity =0 decrease from 12K to around 4K and 2K for x=0.01 and 0.03 samples respectively. For x=0.05 (5at% Ni at Fe site) though Tconset is observed in resistivity measurements but r{ho}=0 is not seen down to 2K. For x more than 0.07, neither the Tconset nor Tcr{ho}=0 is seen down 2K in R-T measurements. It is demonstrated that Ni doping at Fe site in FeSe0.5Te0.5 superconductor suppresses superconductivity fast. The rate of Tc depression is albeit non monotonic. Summarily, a systematic study on suppression of superconductivity with Fe site Ni doping in flux free gown FeSe0.5Te0.5 single crystals is presented in the current communication.

We report synthesis of Co substitution at Fe site in Fe1-xCoxSe0.5Te0.5 (x=0.0 to 0.10) single crystals via vacuum shield solid state reaction route using flux free method. Single crystal XRD results showed that these crystals grow in (00l) plane i.e
., orientation in c-direction. All the crystals possess tetragonal structure having P4/nmm space group. Detailed scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images show that the crystals are grown in slab-like morphology. The EDAX results revealed the final elemental composition to be near stoichiometric. Powder X-Ray diffraction (PXRD) Rietveld analysis results show that (00l) peaks are shifted towards higher angle with increasing Co concentration. Both a and c lattice parameters decrease with increasing Co concentration in Fe1-xCoxSe0.5Te0.5 (x=0.0 to 0.10) single crystals. Low temperature transport and magnetic measurements show that the superconducting transition temperature (Tc), decreases from around 12K to 10K and 4K for x=0.03 and x=0.05 respectively. For x=0.10 crystal superconductivity is not observed down to 2K.
The phase diagram of NdFe1-xCoxAsO for low cobalt substitution consists of a superconducting dome (0.05 < x < 0.20) with a maximum critical temperature of 16.5(2) K for x = 0.12. The x = 1 end member, NdCoAsO, is an itinerant ferromagnet (TC = 85 K)
with an ordered moment of 0.30(1) BM at 15 K. Below TN = 9 K, Nd spin-ordering results in the antiferromagnetic coupling of the existing ferromagnetic planes. Rietveld analysis reveals that the electronically important two-fold tetrahedral angle increases from 111.4 to 115.9 deg. in this series. Underdoped samples with x = 0.046(2) and x = 0.065(2) show distortions to the orthorhombic Cmma structure at 72(2) and 64(2) K, respectively. The temperature dependences of the critical fields Hc2(T) near Tc are linear with almost identical slopes of 2.3(1) T K-1 for x = 0.065(2), x = 0.118(2) and x = 0.172(2). The estimated critical field Hc2(0) and correlation length for optimally doped samples are 26(1) T and 36(1) Angstrom. A comparison of the maximum reported critical temperatures of well-characterized cobalt doped 122- and 1111-type superconductors is presented.
Single crystals of the compound LaFePO were prepared using a flux growth technique at high temperatures. Electrical resistivity measurements reveal metallic behavior and a resistive transition to the superconducting state at a critical temperature T_
c ~ 6.6 K. Magnetization measurements also show the onset of superconductivity near 6 K. In contrast, specific heat measurements manifest no discontinuity at T_c. These results lend support to the conclusion that the superconductivity is associated with oxygen vacancies that alter the carrier concentration in a small fraction of the sample, although superconductivity characterized by an unusually small gap value can not be ruled-out. Under applied magnetic fields, T_c is suppressed anisotropically for fields perpendicular and parallel to the ab-plane, suggesting that the crystalline anisotropy strongly influences the superconducting state. Preliminary high-pressure measurements show that T_c passes through a maximum of nearly 14 K at ~ 110 kbar, demonstrating that significantly higher T_c values may be achieved in the phosphorus-based oxypnictides.
The intermetallic perovskite MgCNi3 is a superconductor with a Tc=7 K. Substitution of Fe and Ru for Ni decreases Tc monotonically as the doping concentration is increased. Here we report thermopower measurements, S(T), on MgCNi3, MgCNi3-xFex and MgC
Ni3-xRux. For MgCNi3, the thermopower is negative, - 12.5 mikroV/K, at 300 K. The absolute value of S decreases as x increases in MgCNi3-xFex and MgCNi3-xRux. The sign of S changes from negative to positive at low temperatures for values of x > 0.01. These data show that the carriers in MgCNi3 are electrons, and by increasing x and decreasing temperature, the participation of hole carriers clearly increases. The influence of the magnetic moments of the Fe atoms on the thermopower is not visible.
Single crystals of the Ni-doped FeAs-based superconductor SrFe2-xNixAs2 were grown using a self-flux solution method and characterized via x-ray measurements and low temperature transport, magnetization, and specific heat studies. A doping phase diag
ram has been established where the antiferromagnetic order associated with the magnetostructural transition of the parent compound SrFe2As2 is gradually suppressed with increasing Ni concentration, giving way to bulk-phase superconductivity with a maximum transition temperature of 9.8 K. The superconducting phase exists through a finite range of Ni concentrations centered at x=0.15, with full diamagnetic screening observed over a narrow range of x coinciding with a sharpening of the superconducting transition and an absence of magnetic order. An enhancement of bulk superconducting transition temperatures of up to 20% was found to occur upon high-temperature annealing of samples.
