摘要
We use inelastic neutron scattering to study energy and wave vector dependence of spin fluctuations in SrCo2As2, derived from SrFe2-xCoxAs2 iron pnictide superconductors. Our data reveal the coexistence of antiferromagnetic (AF) and ferromagnetic ( FM) spin fluctuations at wave vectors Q(AF) = (1, 0) and Q(FM) = (0, 0)/(2, 0), respectively. By comparing neutron scattering results with those of dynamic mean field theory calculation and angle- resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments, we conclude that both AF and FM spin fluctuations in SrCo2As2 are closely associated with a flatband of the e(g) orbitals near the Fermi level, different from the t(2g) orbitals in superconducting SrFe2-xCoxAs2. Therefore, Co substitution in SrFe2-xCoxAs2 induces a t(2g) to e(g) orbital switching, and is responsible for FM spin fluctuations detrimental to the singlet pairing superconductivity.
