Tunnel diode oscillator measurements of the upper critical magnetic   field of FeTe0:5Se0:5
  Temperature dependence of the upper critical magnetic field (Hc2) of single crystalline FeTe0.5Se0.5 (Tc = 14.5 K) have been determined by tunnel diode oscillator-based measurements in magnetic fields of up to 55 T and temperatures down to 1.6 K. The Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg model accounts for the data for magnetic field applied both parallel (H || ab) and perpendicular (H || c) to the iron conducting plane, in line with a single band superconductivity. Whereas Pauli pair breaking is negligible for H || c, Pauli contribution is evidenced for H || ab with Maki parameter alpha= 1.4, corresponding to Pauli field HP = 79 T. As a result, the Hc2 anisotropy (= Habc2 /Hcc2) which is already rather small at Tc (gamma = 1.6) further decreases as the temperature decreases and becomes smaller than 1 at liquid helium temperatures.
