Abstract

Co-doping of lanthanum and phosphorus in CaFe₂ As₂ induces superconductivity at 45 K. This superconducting transition temperature is higher than the 38 K transition in Ba 1_-x K_x Fe ₂ As₂, which is the maximum found thus far among the 122 phases. Superconductivity with a substantial shielding volume fraction was observed at 0.12 ≤ x ≤ 0.18 and y = 0.06 in Ca_1-x La _x Fe₂ (As 1-y P y) 2. The superconducting phase of the present system seems to be not adjacent to an antiferromagnetic phase.
