Abstract
We present 75As nuclear magnetic resonance data from measurements of a series of Ba(Fe(1-x)Co(x))2As2 crystals with 0.00≤x≤0.075 that reveals the coexistence of frozen antiferromagnetic domains and superconductivity for 0.060≤x≤0.071. Although bulk probes reveal no long range antiferromagnetic order beyond x=0.06, we find that the local spin dynamics reveal no qualitative change across this transition. The characteristic domain sizes vary by more than an order of magnitude, reaching a maximum variation at x=0.06. This inhomogeneous glassy dynamics may be an intrinsic response to the competition between superconductivity and antiferromagnetism in this system.Entities:
