Crystal growth and selected properties of alkali/alkaline earth metal iron arsenides by flux growth and floating zone melting — •Andreea Claudia Budea1, Igor Morozov2, Norman Leps1, Agnieszka Joanna Kondrat1, Jorge Enrique Hamann-Borrero1, Christian Hess1, Rüdiger Klingeler1, Günter Behr1, and Bernd Büchner11IFW Dresden, Dresden, Germany — 2Inorganic Chemistry Department, Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia

Large high quality crystals of various classes of novel alkali/alkaline earth metal-iron arsenides were grown by flux or by high pressure floating zone (FZ) methods. Careful selection and handling of high-purity starting materials and the control of oxygen impurities during the whole preparation process is required. The process parameters crucially depend on solution temperature and the solidification mode of the compound from tin flux. The relatively small partial pressures of arsenic in this class of compounds and the nearly congruent melting behavior enable the melting and crystallization in a high pressure floating zone facility under argon pressures above 40 bar. The characterization and selected physical properties of Li1−xFeAs, Ba1−xKxFe2As2, Ba(Fe1−xCox)2As2 are reported.
