Close correlation between superconducting transition temperatures and carrier densities in Te- and S-substituted FeSe thin films

Abstract

We comparatively investigated the transport properties for S- and Te-substituted FeSe thin films under magnetic fields to clarify the origin of the contrasting behavior of the superconducting transition temperature in S and Te substitution. A classical two carrier analysis revealed that the carrier densities of the films increased with increasing Te content, while no significant change was observed for the S-substitution. This composition dependence of the carrier density well corresponds to the TcT_{\mathrm c} behavior. The clear correlation between TcT_{\mathrm c} and the carrier densities suggests that the structural transition affects the electronic structure in a different manner between Fe(Se,S) and Fe(Se,Te) and that this fact is the direct cause of the difference in the TcT_{\mathrm c} behaviors at the end point of the structural transition.
