Strong Curie-Weiss-like magnetic behavior emerges.
Abstract
We measured the transport properties and susceptibility of single crystals CaLaFeAs(x=0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.19 and 0.25). Large in-plane resistivity anisotropy similar to that in Co-doped 122 iron-pnictides is observed although no transition metals were introduced in the FeAs-plane. The in-plane resistivity anisotropy gradually increases with La doping below T, being different from the hole-doped 122 superconductors. The susceptibilities of the samples show that La doping leads to suppression of SDW and induces a Curie-Weiss-like behavior at low temperature, which is much stronger than the other 122 iron-based superconductors.
