Abstract
Polycrystals of Ba0.5K0.5Fe1.9M0.1As2 (M=Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn) synthesized at high pressures show quasi-periodic spikes in the magnetization loop at 2K owing to successive flux jumps, while the single crystals are observed as absence of jumps. The Zn-doped crystal indicates higher frequency flux jumps than that of Zn-free samples, because of the reduction of grain size and enhancement of grain boundary effect. However, the Co-, Ni- and Cu-doped crystals show less jumps duo to the increased granularity. Our present results suggest that the flux jump in the textured polycrystals is controlled largely by the grain boundary as the flux pining effect rather than the intrinsic dopants.
