中文摘要We use unpolarized and polarized inelastic neutron scattering to study low-energy spin excitations in NaFeAs, which exhibits a tetragonal-to-orthorhombic lattice distortion at T-s approximate to 58 K followed by a collinear antiferromagnetic (AF) order below T-N approximate to 45 K. In the AF ordered state (T < T-N), spin waves are entirely c-axis polarized below similar to 10 meV, exhibiting a gap of similar to 4 meV at the AF zone center and disperse to similar to 7 meV near the c-axis AF zone boundary. On warming to the paramagnetic state with orthorhombic lattice distortion (T-N < T < T-s), spin excitations become anisotropic within the FeAs plane. Upon further warming to the paramagnetic tetragonal state (T > T-s), spin excitations become more isotropic. Since similar magnetic anisotropy is also observed in the paramagnetic tetragonal phase of superconducting BaFe1.904Ni0.096As2, our results suggest that the spin excitation anisotropy in superconducting iron pnictides originates from similar anisotropy already present in their parent compounds.
