摘要
We will probe the intrinsic behavior of spin susceptibility chi(spin) in the LaFeAsO1-xFx superconductor (x similar to 0.1, T-c similar to 27 K) using F-19 and As-75 NMR techniques. Our new results firmly establish a pseudo-gap behavior with Delta(PG)/k(B) similar to 140 K. The estimated magnitude of chi(spin) at 290 K, chi(spin) similar to 1.8 x 10(-4) emu/mol-Fe, is approximately twice larger than that in high T-c cuprates. We also show that chi(spin) levels off below similar to 50 K down to T-c.
