Superconductivity under high pressure in LaFeAsO
arXiv:0810.1153 · doi:10.1143/JPSJ.77.113712
Abstract
Electrical resistivity measurements under high pressures up to 29 GPa were performed for oxypnictide compound LaFeAsO. We found a pressure-induced superconductivity in LaFeAsO. The maximum value of Tc is 21 K at ~12 GPa. The pressure dependence of the Tc is similar to those of LaFeAsO1-xFx series reported previously.
