We have performed transverse-field muon spin relaxation (TF-$\mu$SR) measurements on ambient-pressure-grown polycrystalline $\mathrm{LaO_{0.5}F_{0.5}BiS_{2}}$. From these measurements, no signature of magnetic order is found down to 25 mK.…

Superconductivity in binary ruthenium pnictides occurs proximal to and upon suppression of a mysterious non-magnetic ground state, preceded by a pseudogap phase associated with Fermi surface instability, and its critical temperature,…

We have investigated the pressure effect on the newly discovered samarium doped La1-xSmxO0.5F0.5BiS2 superconductors. More than threefold increase in Tc (10.3 K) is observed with external pressure (at ~1.74 GPa at a rate of 4.08 K/GPa)) for…

Topological materials are typically characterized by gapless boundary states originated from nontrivial bulk band topology, known as topological bulk-boundary correspondence. Recently, this fundamental concept has been generalized in…

Motivated by the recent observations of possible p-wave superconductivity in the bismuth-nickel (Bi/Ni) bilayer, we explore theoretically the possibilities of realizing p-wave superconductivity in this bilayer. We begin with a literature…

We report on the crystal growth and characterization of ABi3 (A=Ba,Sr) superconductors. Single crystals of both compounds were grown by the self-flux technique. BaBi3 crystallized in a tetragonal structure with space group P4/mmm and SrBi3…

Superconductivity in thin films and powders, and in single crystals of Pr-123 has been found by Blackstead et al. and Zou et al., respectively. Nevertheless, up to now it has never been reported in sintered-policrystalline samples. We have…

Compelling evidence for band-type conductivity and even bulk superconductivity below $T\_{\text{c}}\approx 8$ K has been found in $^{69,71}$Ga-NMR experiments in crystalline ordered, giant Ga$\_{84}$ cluster-compounds. This material appears…

We investigated the superconducting properties of the topological superconductor $\alpha$--PdBi$_2$ at ambient and external pressures up to 1.77~GPa using muon spin rotation ($\mu$SR) experiments. The ambient pressure measurements evince a…

We observed superconductivity ($T_{c}$ $\simeq$2-3 K) in Li$_{x}$RhB$_{y}$ intermetallics wherein $x$ and $y$ vary over a wide compositional range. The crystal structure consists of cubic unit-cell ($a$ $\simeq$ 12.1 \AA ) with…

The synthesis and detailed characterization of the noncentrosymmetric superconductor Re$_{6}$Hf using powder x-ray diffraction (XRD), magnetization, transport and thermodynamic measurements are reported. XRD confirms the crystal structure…

We show that hole-doped cuprates can harbor {\it Fermi-surface-free superconductivity} similar to the case of the pnictides. This occurs near the doping at which a new Fermi surface pocket appears in the antinodal region. The change in…

We develop a theory of superconductivity in ultrasmall (nm-scale) metallic grains having a discrete electronic eigenspectrum with a mean level spacing of order of the bulk gap. The theory is based on calculating the eigenspectrum using a…

Ultrafast broadband transient reflectivity experiments are performed to study the interplay between the non-equilibrium dynamics of the pseudogap and the superconducting phases in Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$Ca$_{0.92}$Y$_{0.08}$Cu$_{2}$O$_{8+\delta}$.…

A single-sample synthesis concept based on multi-element ceramic samples can produce a variety of local products. When applied to cuprate superconductors (SC), statistical modelling predicts the occurrence of possible compounds in a…

Compacted platinum powders exhibit a sharp onset of diamagnetic screening at $T \simeq 1.9$ mK in zero magnetic field in all samples investigated. This sharp onset is interpreted in terms of the intragranular transition into the…

We use multi-scale techniques to determine the extent of local inhomogeneity and superconductivity in Ca$_{0.86}$Pr$_{0.14}$Fe$_{2}$As$_{2}$ single crystal. The inhomogeneity is manifested as a spatial variation of praseodymium…

In this work, we have investigated the precursor effects to superconductivity in BaPb$_{0.75}$Bi$_{0.25}$O$_3$ using temperature dependent resistivity, x-ray diffraction technique and photoemission spectroscopy. The present compound…

Experimental measurements clearly reveal the presence of bulk superconductivity in the CsPbxBi4-xTe6 (0.3=<x=<1.0) materials, i.e. the first member of the thermoelectric series of Cs[PbmBi3Te5+m], these materials have the layered…

We report the observation of proximity effect in measurements performed on highly oriented pyrolitic graphite (HOPG) samples when electrical current is injected through the superconducting electrodes placed on the sample surface few…
