Description
We report bulk superconductivity (SC) in Eu0.2Sr0.8(Fe0.86Co0.14)2As2 single crystals by means of electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements with Tc ≃ 20 K and an antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering of Eu2+ moments at TN ≃ 2.0 K in zero field. 75As NMR experiments have been performed in the two external field directions (H ∥ ab) and (H ∥ c). 75As-NMR spectra are analysed in terms of first-order quadrupolar interaction. Spin-lattice relaxation rates (1/T1) follow a T3 law in the temperature range 4.2-15 K. There is no signature of a Hebel-Slichter coherence peak just below the SC transition, indicating a non-s-wave or s± type of superconductivity. In the temperature range 160-18 K 1/T1T follows the C/(T+θ) law reflecting 2D AFM spin fluctuations. (paper)
