It is becoming common to study correlated electron systems using elastoresistance, the change in electrical resistance under strain. An interesting aspect of this technique is the possibility of applying symmetry-selective strain to the system under investigation. In this study, we present the method of uniaxial/biaxial elastoresistance and how it can be applied to study various symmetry channels. The method is applied to the itinerant antiferromagnet Ca1−xSrxCo2−yAs2 that shows a collapsed-to-uncollapsed tetragonal structural crossover and interesting magnetic orderings upon Sr substitution [1, 2]. We observe prominent and diverse signals in the different symmetry channels, especially a large A1g (non-symmetry breaking) elastoresistance.
