| 中文摘要 | The origin of superconductivity in the iron pnictides remains unclear. One suggestion is that superconductivity in these materials has a magnetic origin, which would imply a sign-reversal s(+/-) pairing symmetry. Another suggests it is the result of orbital fluctuations, which would imply a sign-equal s(+/-+/-) pairing symmetry. There is no consensus yet which of these two distinct and contrasting pairing symmetries is the right one in iron pnictide superconductors. Here we explore the nature of the pairing symmetry in the superconducting state of Na(Fe0.97-xCo0.03Cux)As by probing the effect of scattering of Cooper pairs by non-magnetic Cu impurities. Using scanning tunnelling spectroscopy, we identify the in-gap quasi-particle states induced by the Cu impurities, showing signatures of Cooper pair breaking by these non-magnetic impurities-a process that is only consistent with s(+/-) pairing. This experiment provides strong evidence for the s(+/-) pairing. |
