Resumen:
We have studied the crystalline structure and the superconducting properties of Ca(1-x)Na(x)Fe2As2 single crystals for various levels of the chemical doping (x). We performed a comparative analysis of the angular dependent Hc2 for x~0.5 and x ~ 0.75, corresponding to Tc19 K and 33 K, respectively. We found that in both cases Hc2 versus angle near Tc exhibits a single band character with the same anisotropy gamma ~ 1.8. In the crystal with Tc ~ 33 K we detected the presence of a narrow vortex-liquid phase, in agreement with the expectation from estimates based on the Lindemann criterion and the Ginzburg number. We also found large and anisotropic flux creep rates, with temperature dependences that indicate glassy relaxation. We analyzed those results in terms of single vortex and collective pinning regimes associated with random and correlated disorder.
