Abstract

We present 57Fe-NMR measurements of the novel normal and superconducting-state characteristics of the iron-arsenide superconductor Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2 (Tc=38 K). In the normal state, the measured Knight shift and nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate (1⁄T1) demonstrate the development of wave-number (q)-dependent spin fluctuations, except at q=0, which may originate from the nesting across the disconnected Fermi surfaces. In the superconducting state, the spin component in the 57Fe-Knight shift decreases to almost zero at low temperatures, evidencing a spin-singlet superconducting state. The 57Fe-1⁄T1 results are totally consistent with a s±-wave model with multiple full gaps in the strong coupling regime. We demonstrate that the respective 1⁄T1 data for Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2 and LaFeAsO0.7, which seemingly follow a T5- and a T3-like behaviors below Tc, are consistently explained in terms of this model only by changing the size of the superconducting gap.
