Abstract

EXAFS studies at the As K edge as a function of temperature have been carried out in SmFeAsO_{1-x}F_x (x = 0 and 0.2) compounds to understand the role of local structural distortions superconductivity observed in F doped compound. A significant correlation between thermal variation of local structural parameters like anion height and superconducting onset is found in the fluorinated compound. Such a variation in anion height is absent in non-superconducting compound. Increase in Fe-As bond distance just below superconducting onset temperature indicates a similarity in distortions observed in high T_C cuprates and these Fe based superconductors.
