Abstract

The dynamics of the local atomic pair correlations in the FeSe x Te1-x (x = 0.1, 0.5, and 0.9) system were investigated using the dynamic pair density function analysis obtained from inelastic neutron scattering. Distinct differences are observed between the superconducting and nonsuperconducting compositions, particularly involving the local dynamics of the Fe-Fe correlations. The energy scale of the observed differences is between 25 and 30 meV. In the nonsuperconducting FeSe0.1Te0.9, the Fe-Fe correlations are enhanced with cooling that may signal stronger exchange interactions, while in the superconducting compositions of FeSe 0.9Te0.1 and FeSe0.5Te0.5, they are suppressed.
