Raman spectra of polycrystalline NdFeAsO1-xFx (x=0.0, 0.1, 0.2) compound have been systematically investigated as functions of temperature and fluorine concentration. Scanning electron microscopic and Raman microscopic characterization demonstrates that the polycrystalline samples mainly contain two phases, i.e. superconductor NdFeAsO1-xFx compound and a MnP-type FeAs phase, with dissimilar characteristic Raman bands. It was found that fluorine doping leads to structure disorder in the insulator Nd-O layers and high temperature coefficient of Fe-As vibrational mode.

La0.7Ba0.3MnO3 (LBMO):Agx (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4) composites are synthesized by solid-state reaction route, the final sintering temperatures are varied from 1300 (LBMO1300Ag) to 1400 0C (LBMO1400Ag), and their physical properties are compar ed as a function of temperature and Ag content. All samples are crystallized in single phase accompanied by some distortion in main structural phase peaks at higher angles with increase in silver content. Though the lattice parameters (a, c) decrease, the b increases slightly with an increase in Ag content. The scanning electron micrographs (SEM) showed better grains morphology in terms of size and diffusion of grain boundaries with an increase in Ag content. In both LBMO1300Ag and LBMO1400Ag series the metal insulator transition (TMI) and accompanied paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition (TC) temperatures are decreased with increase in Ag content. The sharpness of MI transition, defined by temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR), is improved for Ag added samples. At a particular content of Ag(0.3), the TMI and TC are tuned to 300K and maximum magneto-resistance at 7Tesla applied field (MR7T) of up to 55% is achieved at this temperature, which is more than double to that as observed for pure samples of the both 1300 and 1400 0C series at same temperature. The MR7T is further increased to above 60% for LBMOAg(0.4) samples, but is at 270K. The MR7T is measured at varying temperatures of 5, 100, 200, 300, and 400K in varying fields from +/- 7 Tesla, which exhibits U and V type shapes. Summarily, the addition of Ag in LBMO improves significantly the morphology of the grains and results in better physical properties of the parent manganite system.
We report plane-polarized Raman scattering spectra of iron oxypnictide superconductor NdFeAsO$_{1-x}$F$_x$ single crystals with varying fluorine $x$ content. The spectra exhibit sharp and symmetrical phonon lines with a weak dependence on fluorine do ping $x$. The temperature dependence does not show any phonon anomaly at the superconducting transition. The Fe related phonon intensity shows a strong resonant enhancement below 2 eV. We associate the resonant enhancement to the presence of an interband transition around 2 eV observed in optical conductivity. Our results point to a rather weak coupling between Raman-active phonons and electronic excitations in iron oxypnictides superconductors.
Local structure of NdFeAsO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$ ($x$=0.0, 0.05, 0.15 and 0.18) high temperature iron pnictide superconductor system is studied using arsenic $K$-edge extended x-ray absorption fine structure measurements as a function of temperature. Fe-As bondlength shows only a weak temperature and F-substitution dependence, consistent with the strong covalent nature of this bond. The temperature dependence of the mean-square relative-displacements of the Fe-As bondlength are well described by the correlated-Einstein model for all the samples, but with different Einstein-temperatures for the superconducting and non-superconducting samples. The results indicate distinct local Fe-As lattice dynamics in the superconducting and non-superconducting iron-pnictide systems.
Hole-doping of NdFeAsO via partial replacement of Nd3+ by Sr2+ is a successful route to obtain superconducting phases (Tc = 13.5 K for a Sr2+ content of 20%); however, the structural and electronic response with doping is different from and non-symme tric to that in the electron-doped side of the phase diagram.
The electrical resistivity (Rxx) and Hall resistivity (Rxy) of LaFeAsO1-xFx have been measured over a wide fluorine doping range 0 =< x =< 0.14 using 60 T pulsed magnets. While the superconducting phase diagram (Tc, x) displays the classic dome-shape d structure, we find that the resistive upper critical field (Hc2) increases monotonically with decreasing fluorine concentration, with the largest Hc2 >= 75 T for x = 0.05. This is reminiscent of the composition dependence in high-Tc cuprates and might correlate with opening of a pseudo-gap in the underdoped region. Further, the temperature dependence of Hc2(T) for superconducting samples can be understood in terms of multi-band superconductivity. Rxy data for non-superconducting samples show non-linear field dependence, which is also consistent with a multi-carrier scenario.
