摘要

The specific heat down to 0.08 K of the iron pnictide superconductor KFe_2 AS_2 was measured on a single-crystal sample with a residual resistivity ratio of ~650, with a T_c~(onset) determined by a specific heat of 3.7 K. The zero-field normal-state specific heat divided by temperature, C/T, was extrapolated from above T_c to T = 0 by insisting on agreement between the extrapolated normal-state entropy at T_c, S_n~(extrap)(T_C), and the measured superconducting-state entropy at T_c, S_s~(meas)(Tc), since for a second-order phase transition the two entropies must be equal. This extrapolation would indicate that this rather clean sample of KFe_2As_2 exhibits non-Fermi-liquid behavior; i.e., C/T increases at low temperatures, in agreement with the reported non-Fermi-liquid behavior in the resistivity. However, specific heat as a function of magnetic field shows that the shoulder feature around 0.7 K, which is commonly seen in KFe_2As_2 samples, is not evidence for a second superconducting gap as has been previously proposed but instead is due to an unknown magnetic impurity phase, which can affect the entropy balance and the extrapolation of the normal-state specific heat. This peak (somewhat larger in magnitude) with similar field dependence is also found in a less pure sample of KFe_2As_2, with a residual resistivity ratio of only 90 and T_c~(onset) = 3.1 K. These data, combined with the measured normal-state specific heat in field to suppress superconductivity, allow the conclusion that an increase in the normal-state specific heat as T →0 is in fact not seen in KFe_2As_2; i.e., Fermi-liquid behavior is observed.
