Electronic nematicity has been discussed intensively in the research on iron-pnictide superconductors. Evidence for electronic nematicity has been reported from various experiments including magnetic torque measurements [1], scanning tunneling microscopy [2] as well as electronic transport [3]. The nematicity manifests itself in a strong anisotropy in electrical resistance of single crystals detwinned by the application of mild uniaxial strain [3]. Different experimental and theoretical studies support the idea that the transport anisotropy basically results from anisotropic scattering by dopant-induced impurity states [2]. In this contribution, we present measurements of the electrical resistance on detwinned high-quality single crystals of Ca(Fe1−xCox)2As2 with different doping levels x. We discuss the size of the anisotropy, its dependence on the doping level and the effect of hydrostatic pressure tuning [4].
