Efficient tuning of the superconductor BaNi2As2 by Calcium substitution - Single crystal Growth and Characterization — •Fabian Henßler, Kristin Willa, Mehdi Frachet, Tom Lacmann, Christoph Meingast, Michael Merz, Amir-Abbas Haghighirad, and Matthieu Le Tacon — Institut für Quantenmaterialien und Technologien, KIT Karlsruhe, Deutschland

BaNi2As2 is a highly tunable superconductor, which is non-magnetic and isostructural to the Fe-based parent compound BaFe2As2. Beyond superconductivity, recent publications reinforce the strong interplay between nematicity, charge density waves (CDW), and structural distortions [1,2,3]. At about 145 K, an incommensurate CDW forms, which coincides with a small lattice distortion (δ∼10−4) [4]. At slightly lower temperatures (TS), the system undergoes a first-order transition, which can be suppressed e.g. by P- or Sr-substitution. Thereby, the superconducting transition temperature Tc can be enhanced by a factor of six [5]. In the case of Sr substitutions, however, a concentration as large as xSr ∼ 0.7 is required. As an alternative, we report on the growth of Ca-substituted single crystals with Ca content up to xCa ∼ 0.1. Specific heat and electrical transport measurements indicate that Ca is about eight times more efficient than Sr to suppress TS.
