Hedgehog spin-vortex crystal magnetic order in superconducting CaK(Fe1-xMx)4As4 (M=Co, Ni)

ORAL

Abstract

Antiferromagnetism in Fe-based superconductors is characterized by a pair of propagation vectors which may support a number of magnetic phases. Ni- and Co-doping in CaKFe4As4 suppresses superconductivity and stabilizes a new antiferromagnetic phase. Thermodynamic, transport, structural and local magnetic probes reveal this phase to be consistent with the hedgehog spin-vortex crystal. Ab initio calculations also indicate a preference for this non-collinear antiferromagnetism which is stabilized by the reduced symmetry of the CaKFe4As4 structure.
