On spatial non-homogeneity in iron pnictides: formation of stripes

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

The heterogeneous coexistence of antiferromagnetism (SDW) and superconductivity on a mesoscopic scale was observed in iron-pnictides in many recent experiments. We suggest and discuss the scenario in which the heterogeneity is caused by formation of domain walls inherent to the SDW state of pnictides at a proper doping or under applied pressure. Superconductivity would emerge from the modulated SDW structure. The phenomenon is akin to the FFLO-phase in superconductors.
