The intercalated [(Li1−xFex)OH](Fe1−yLiy)Se exhibits superconductivity with Tc=43 K and ferromagnetic order of iron moments within the Interlayer at Tfm≈ 10 K. Similar to P-substituted Eu-122 [1] both ordering phenomena are spatially separated and Tc>Tfm, but in this compound ferromagnetism arises from 3d-electrons and thus offers huge potential to chemically influence the ferromagnetism and further study coexistence in the iron based superconductors.
Our DFT calculation reveals that the hydroxide layers electron-dope the FeSe layer, but do not disturb its typical Fermi surface topology. Instead, the interlayer’s dipolar field continuously penetrates the superconducting volume below 10 K.
Our 57Fe-Mössbauer spectroscopy, 7Li-NMR and µSR data show the interplay of both ordering phenomena and distinguish their origin. Our combined results [2] show, that [(Li1−xFex)OH](Fe1−yLiy)Se is a rare sample of the formation of a spontaneous vortex phase.
