摘要
We report the success in introducing Mn into(Li1-xFex)OHFe1-y Se superconducting crystals by applying two different hydrothermal routes, ion exchange(1-step) and ion release/introduction(2-step). The micro-region x-ray diffraction and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy analyses indicate that Mn has been doped into the lattice, and its content in the 1-step fabricated sample is higher than that in the 2-step one. Magnetic susceptibility and electric transport properties reveal that Mn doping influences little on the superconducting transition, regardless of 1-step or 2-step routes. By contrast, the characteristic temperature T^*, at which the negative Hall coefficient reaches its minimum, is significantly reduced by Mn doping.This implies that the hole carriers contribution is obviously modified, and hence the hole band might have no direct relationship with the superconductivity in(Li1-xFex)OHFe1-y Se superconductors. Our present hydrothermal methods of ion exchange and ion release/introduction provide an efficient way for elements substitution/doping into(Li1-xFex)OHFe1-y Se superconductors, which will promote the in-depth investigations on the role of multiple electron and hole bands and their interplay with the high-temperature superconductivity in the FeSe-based superconductors.
