Abstract

The crystal structure and numerous normal and superconducting state properties of layered tetragonal (P4∕nmm) LaFeAsO, with F doping of ≈11%, are reported. Resistivity measurements give an onset transition temperature Tc=28.2K, and low field magnetic susceptibility data indicate bulk superconductivity. In applied magnetic field, analysis of the resistive transition results in a critical field Hc2≈30T and a coherence length ξGL≈35Å. An upper limit for the electron carrier concentration of 1×1021cm−3 is inferred from the Hall data just above Tc. Strong electron-electron correlations are suggested from temperature-dependent resistivity, Seebeck coefficient, and thermal conductivity data. Anomalies near Tc are observed in both Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity data.
