- By comparing temperature and doping dependence of the lattice distortion with the elastoresistance and nematic susceptibility obtained from transport and ultrasonic measurements, we conclude that the in-plane resistivity anisotropy found in electron underdoped iron pnictides arises from a strong coupling between the uniaxial pressure induced lattice distortion and electronic nematic state.2015, Xingye Lu, T.
