【 摘 要 】

Electrical transport measurements are used to study the Rh-doped NaFeAs superconductor series with a focus on the tetragonal phase. The resistivity curvature has an anomalous temperature dependence evidencing in the phase diagram two crossover regions of changes in the scattering rate, the effective mass as well as of the charge carrier density. The first crossover region is directly connected to the structural transition and resembles the onset of resistivity anisotropy. The second crossover region can as well be deduced from the temperature-dependent Hall coefficient. A comparison to literature nuclear magnetic resonance data suggests this region to be connected with nematic fluctuations far above the tetragonal to orthorhombic phase transition.
