We discuss the universality of the complicated ground states and the high-Tc superconducting states in various Fe-based compounds from a microscopic point through NMR techniques.
First we show systematic NMR study on [Sr4Sc2O6]Fe2(As1-xPx)2(≡SrSc42622)[1], which has local lattice parameters of iron-pnictogen (FePn) layer similar to the series of LaFe(As1-xPx)O that exhibits the reemergent antiferromagnetic (AFM) order at x~0.6 (≡AFM2) separated from the parent AFM order at x=0 (≡AFM1)[2,3]. Although the static AFM2 order is not observed in SrSc42622, the dynamical low-energy AFM spin fluctuations are enhanced at around x~0.8, indicating that the onset of the static AFM2 is quite sensitive to the local lattice parameters of FePn layer[4]. The result points out that such reenhancement of low energy AFM spin fluctuations derived from AFM2 order phase play a significant role for enhancing the Tc (=17K) at x=0.8~1 of SrSc42622[5].
In order to elucidate the further universality and diversity, we also present the recent studies on Fe-based superconductors in heavily electron-doped regime, that occurs without the nesting of Fermi surfaces and apparent spin fluctuations at low energies. Here we discuss the universality and diversity on the Fe-arsenide LaFe2As2(Tc=12K)[6,7], LaFe(As1-x(Sb/P)x)(O1-yHy)(Tc~30K)[2], and intercalated FeSe high-Tc superconductors(Tc=44K)[8] in heavily electron-doped regimes.
