Description

Since the discovery of superconductivity in iron pnictides, many compounds in this family have been heavily studied due the easily induced superconductivity using chemical doping. In the case of CaFe2As2, high pressure can be used to establish and tune superconductivity instead. In this investigation, the phase diagram and the pressure induced onset/disappearance of superconductivity were studied using ac-resistive measurements in magnetic fields up to 11 T.
