Abstract
We report nuclear magnetic resonance measurements of the spin-lattice relaxation in the superconducting (SC) state of and As-deficient . The temperature behavior of below changes drastically from a dependence for to a dependence for the As-deficient sample. These results, together with the previously reported unexpected increase in and the slope of the upper critical field near for the As-deficient sample, are discussed in terms of nonuniversal SC gaps in Fe pnictides and the effect of As deficiency as an exotic case where nonmagnetic “smart” impurities even stabilize an -wave superconductor or within a scenario of a disorder-driven change to superconductivity.
