Fe nuclear resonant inelastic scattering measurements were performed over a wide temperature range from 5 to 300 K on two polycrystalline samples with
and 0.51, which exhibit superconducting and antiferromagnetic ground states, respectively. The resulting inelastic scattering spectra revealed distinct differences between the two compositions. The Fe phonon density of states (PDOS) exhibits a pronounced peak at 15 meV for
, whereas this peak is absent in
. Density functional theory calculations support the interpretation that the PDOS peak at 15 meV is associated with the optical vibrational modes of Fe atoms along the nearest-neighbor direction, mediated by As atoms. The calculations further suggest that the suppression of the PDOS peak at 15 meV for
originates from in-plane electronic inequivalence. These findings suggest that signatures of electronic nematicity may persist over a wide temperature range in the
composition, which exhibits magnetic and structural order, whereas such signatures are almost absent in the superconducting
composition.

Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:15.88(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Inelastic neutron scattering was performed for an iron-based superconductor, where most of D (deuterium) replaces oxygen, while a tiny amount goes into interstitial sites. By first-principle calculation, we characterize the interstitial sites for D (and for H slightly mixed) with four equivalent potential minima. Below the superconducting transition temperature Tc = 26 K, new excitations emerge in the range 5-15 meV, while they are absent in the reference system LaFeAsO
F
. The strong excitations at 14.5 meV and 11.1 meV broaden rapidly around 15 K and 20 K, respectively, where each energy becomes comparable to twice of the superconducting gap. The strong excitations are ascribed to a quantum rattling, or a band motion of hydrogen, which arises only if the number of potential minima is larger than two.

A series of oxyhydrides LaH
O
exhibits characteristic high H
conductivity. In this study, we performed the incoherent quasielastic neutron scattering measurements to investigate H
dynamics in LaH
O
. We successfully identify two kinds of microscopic H
dynamics in the end member LaH
; the jump diffusion and the localized back and forth jump between neighboring tetrahedral and octahedral sites. These dynamics have the common elementary jump process between the Tet and adjacent Oct sites, and become more conspicuous with increasing a concentration of H
. Based on these results, we discuss that the origin of the high H
conductivity in this system is explained by a so-called concerted migration model.
