We have studied the in-plane anisotropy of detwinned isovalent substituted EuFe2(As1−xPx)2 single crystals using a uniaxial pressure clamp. In the studied regime 0 < x ≤ 0.12 the structural and magnetic phase transitions are clearly separated. We reveal that the structural transition breaks the C4 rotational symmetry and induces nematic phase via the in-plane anisotropic measurements of resistivity and thermoelectric power. The observed anisotropy in both properties indicates the existence of nematic phase below the structural phase transition. A reconstruction of the Fermi surface below the magnetic transition is deduced by the thermopower anisotropy. Additionally, the resistivity anisotropy is larger than the orthorhombic distortion, indicating the difference of underlying electronic excitation near Fermi surface. The anisotropy below the Néel transition is caused by the intrinsic electronic structure, whereas the electronic nematicity plays an important role for the larger anisotropy above the Néel transition.
