Single-layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) can adopt two distinct structures corresponding to different coordination of the metal atoms. TMDCs adopting the T-type structure exhibit a rich and diverse set of phenomena, including…
Two dimensional films comprising of Bi clusters ranging in size from 25 to 100 $\mathrm{\AA}$ show an influence of the underlying matrix on normal state resistivity and the superconducting transition temperature $T_\mathrm{c}$. This is in…
When approaching the atomically thin limit, defects and disorder play an increasingly important role in the properties of two-dimensional materials. Superconductivity is generally thought to be vulnerable to these effects, but here we…
The strong coupling between lattice modes and charges which leads to the formation of charge density waves in materials such as the transition-metal dichalcogenides may also give rise to superconductivity in the same materials, mediated by…
The weak van der Waals interlayer interactions in the transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials have created a rich platform to study their exotic electronic properties through chemical doping or physical gating techniques. We…
Single crystals of the compound LaFePO were prepared using a flux growth technique at high temperatures. Electrical resistivity measurements reveal metallic behavior and a resistive transition to the superconducting state at a critical…
Plasmonic excitations behave fundamentally different in layered materials in comparison to bulk systems. They form gapless modes, which in turn couple at low energies to the electrons. Thereby they can strongly influence superconducting…
Effect of geometry on the superconductivity is considered. It is shown that the for nearly two dimensional BCS systems the critical temperature is rapidly increased with decreasing the thickness of the layer. The result is expected to be…
Molecules adsorbing on metal surfaces form a variety of different surface polymorphs. How strongly this polymorphism affects interface properties is a priori unknown. In this work we investigate how strongly the surface polymorphism…
We have studied the enhancement of the superconducting transition temperature, Tc, in a t-J-U model of electrons moving on a square lattice in which anisotropic electronic hopping is introduced. The inclusion of such hopping mimics, in a…
The emergence of two-dimensional (2D) superconductivity in bulk transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is a fascinating area of research, as their weak interlayer coupling leads to novel superconducting behavior and offers a rich platform…
We report for the first time the occurrence of superconductivity in the quaternary silicide carbide YRe2SiC with Tc = 5.9 K. The emergence of superconductivity was confirmed by means of magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity, and…
The relation between the polar structural instability and superconductivity in a Weyl semimetal candidate MoTe2 has been clarified by finely controlled physical and chemical pressure. The physical pressure as well as the chemical pressure,…
We have carried out a systematic study of the PbO-type compound FeSe_{1-x}Te_x (x = 0~1), where Te substitution effect on superconductivity is investigated. It is found that superconducting transition temperature reaches a maximum of…
The intermetallic compounds AAl2-xSix, where A = Ca, Sr or Ba, crystallize in the C32 structure, same as the recently discovered MgB2 with a high superconducting transition temperature of 39 K. For x = 1, superconductivity has been observed…
AgSbTe2 is a well-known thermoelectric material with a high Seebeck coefficient and intrinsically low thermal conductivity, but its behavior under pressure remains largely unexplored. Here we report a systematic investigation of the…
We have investigated uniaxial pressure effect on superconductivity of pure Sr2RuO4, whose intrinsic superconducting transition temperature Tc is 1.5 K. It was revealed that a very low uniaxial pressure along the c axis, only 0.2 GPa,…
We report superconductivity in single crystals of the new iron-pnictide system BaFe1.9Pt0.1As2 grown by a self-flux solution method and characterized via x-ray, transport, magnetic and thermodynamic measurements. The magnetic ordering…
This study examines the magnetotransport response observed in flakes of the 3D topological insulator (TI) Bi2Te3, including indium superconducting electrodes, and demonstrates two critical transitions in the magnetoresistive response with…
The superconducting and structural properties of a series of Mg1-xAlxB2 samples have been investigated. X-ray diffraction results confirmed the existence of a structural transition associated with the significant change in inter-boron layer…
