Аннотация: NdFeAsO0.88F0.12 belongs to the recently discovered family of high-T-C iron-based superconductors. We have studied the influence of high pressure on transport properties of this material at low temperatures using the four-probe electrical conductivity technique in a diamond cell. Contrary to La-based compounds, we did not observe aПоказать полностьюmaximum in T-C under pressure. Under compression, T-C drops rapidly as a linear function of pressure with the slope k = -2.8 +/- 0.1 K/GPa. Under decompression, the behavior is completely reversible. The extrapolated value of T-C at zero pressure is about T-C(0) = 51.7 +/- 0.4 K. At pressures higher than similar to 18.4 GPa, the superconducting state disappears at all measured temperatures, although electrical resistance changes slope dramatically and shows a concave behavior. These observations may be related to the Kondo effect or to a weak localization of two-dimensional carriers at high pressures and low temperatures below similar to 45 K, indicating a competition mechanism with the superconducting phase. On the bases of our experimental data, we propose a tentative P-T phase diagram of NdFeAsO0.88F0.12. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2012
