Powder neutron-diffraction measurements on both SmFeAsO and the fluorine-doped superconductor, SmFeAsO0.85F0.15, show that the Sm sublattice orders magnetically. In both cases we observe a simple layered antiferromagnetic arrangement of the 0.5B Sm moments. This provides direct evidence that long-ranged magnetic order of the samarium moments coexists with superconductivity in the SmFeAsO1−xFx system.

Abstract

Powder neutron-diffraction measurements on both SmFeAsO and the fluorine-doped superconductor, SmFeAsO0.85F0.15, show that the Sm sublattice orders magnetically. In both cases we observe a simple layered antiferromagnetic arrangement of the 0.5B Sm moments. This provides direct evidence that long-ranged magnetic order of the samarium moments coexists with superconductivity in the SmFeAsO1−xFx system.
