Here we report a novel nitridation technique for transforming niobium into hexagonal Nb2N which appears to be superconducting below 1K. The nitridation is achieved by high temperature annealing of Nb films grown on Si3N4/Si (100) substrate…

The large size single crystals of (SnSe)$_{1.16}$(NbSe$_2$) misfit layered compound were grown and superconductivity with $T_c$ of 3.4 K was first discovered in this system. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and high resolution transmission…

In unconventional superconductors such as cuprates and iron pnictides and chalcogenides, phase stiffness - a measure of the energy cost associated with superconducting phase variations - is on the same order of magnitude as the strength of…

We investigated transport and magnetic properties of NdFeAsO$_{0.9}$F$_{0.1}$ single crystal under hydrostatic pressures up to 50\,GPa. The ambient pressure superconductivity at $T_{c} \sim$ 45.4\,K is fully suppressed at $P_{c} \sim$ 21…

Understanding how superconductivity emerges and collapses in correlated electron systems remains a central challenge in condensed matter physics. As a recently discovered member of the high temperature superconductor family, bilayer…

The superconducting state of the newly discovered superconductor K$_2$Cr$_3$As$_3$ with a quasi-one-dimensional crystal structure ($T_{\bf c}\sim$ 6 K) has been investigated by using magnetization and muon-spin relaxation or rotation…

The transport properties of superconducting single crystal Pb nanowires of 55 nm and 70 nm diameter are studied by standard four electrodes method. Resistance-temperature (R-T) scans and magneto-resistance (R-H) measurements show a series…

Mixing of spin singlet and spin triplet superconducting pairing state is expected in noncentrosymmetric superconductors (NCS) due to the inherent presence of Rashba-type antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling. Unlike low symmetry (tetragonal or…

Superconductivity in Iron-Arsenic based pnictides emerges in close proximity to an antiferromagnetic (AFM)ordered parent state and the AFM phase overlaps with superconducting (SC) phase in some pnictides for certain range of doping.…

Using the self-flux technique we grew superconducting $(K_{1-z}Na_z)_{x}Fe_{2-y}Se_2$ (z = 0.3) single crystals. The EDX mapping revealed the uniform elements distribution on the crystal surface while the XRD measurements indicate that the…

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…

Nb2SnC is a member of the large family of lamellar materials that crystallize in the hexagonal structure with space group P63/mmc which are isomorphs with Cr2AlC, also named H-phase. In spite of the great number of compounds which belong to…

We report a study of NiBi$_3$ single crystals by means of electrical-resistivity-, magnetization-, and muon-spin rotation and relaxation ($\mu$SR) measurements. As a single crystal, NiBi$_3$ adopts a needle-like shape and exhibits bulk…

There is increasing evidence that inhomogeneous distributions of charge and spin--so-called "striped phases"--play an important role in determining the properties of the high-temperature superconductors. For example, recent…

We measure the resistivity and magnetic susceptibility in the temperature range from 5 K to 600 K for the single crystals $A$Fe$_{2-y}$Se$_2$ ($A$ = K$_{0.8}$, Rb$_{0.8}$, Cs$_{0.8}$, Tl$_{0.5}$K$_{0.3}$ and Tl$_{0.4}$Rb$_{0.4}$). A sharp…

We report on superconductivity in single crystals of SrTiO$_{3-\delta}$ with carrier densities $\textit{n} < 1.4 \times10^{18}cm^{-3}$, where only a single band is occupied. For all samples in this regime, the resistive transition occurs at…

We explore the role of phase fluctuations in a 3-dimensional s-wave superconductor, NbN, as we approach the critical disorder for the destruction of the superconducting state. Scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurements reveal that in the…

Porous silicon, obtained by electrochemical etching, has been used as a substrate for the growth of nanoperforated Nb thin films. The films, deposited by UHV magnetron sputtering on the porous Si substrates, inherited their structure made…

We report results of dc magnetic and ac linear low-frequency study of a polycrystalline MgB$_2$ sample. AC susceptibility measurements at low frequencies, performed under dc fields parallel to the sample surface, provide a clear evidence…

Using a single coil mutual inductance technique, we measure the low temperature dependence of the magnetic penetration depth in superconducting NbN films prepared with similar critical temperatures around 16 K but with different…
