Abstract
Here the authors report that by a high pressure synthesis method, superconductivity with an onset transition temperature at 52 K was discovered in a fluorine-doped quaternary iron-arsenide compound Pr[O1-xFx]FeAs, with the zero resistivity and Meissner transition appeared at 44 K and 50 K respectively. As the first non-cuprate compound that superconducts above 50 K, this discovery places these iron arsenide compounds to the second high temperature superconducting family explicitly.Keywords
