We fabricated small-size stacks on the surface of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+x}$ (BSCCO-2212) single crystals with the bulk transition temperature $T_c$$\simeq$90 K, each containing a few intrinsic Josephson junctions. Below a critical…
We report a high-pressure single crystal study of the topological superconductor Cu$_x$Bi$_2$Se$_3$. Resistivity measurements under pressure show superconductivity is depressed smoothly. At the same time the metallic behavior is gradually…
Spin-triplet superconductors are novel materials capable of harboring Majorana bound states that can be used in topological quantum computing. However, such bulk materials are still rare. Here we review the results that established K2Cr3As3…
We observed superconductivity ($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…
We have measured upper-critical-field $H_{\text c2}$, specific heat C, and tunneling spectra of the intermetallic perovskite superconductor MgCNi${}_3$ with a superconducting transition temperature $T_{\text c}\approx 7.6$ K. Based on these…
Superconductors with broken time-reversal symmetry represent arguably one of the most promising venues for realizing highly sought-after topological superconductivity that is vital to fault-tolerant quantum computation. Here, by using…
Time reversal and spatial inversion are two key symmetries for conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) superconductivity. Breaking inversion symmetry can lead to mixed-parity Cooper pairing and unconventional superconducting…
Both Nb$_3$Pd$_x$Se$_7$ and Ta$_4$Pd$_3$Te$_{16}$ crystallize in a monoclinic point group while exhibiting superconducting transition temperatures as high as $T_c\sim 3.5$ and $\sim 4.7 $ K, respectively. Disorder was claimed to lead to the…
This work discusses theoretically the interplay between the superconducting and ferromagnetic proximity effects, in a diffusive normal metal strip in contact with a superconductor and a non-uniformly magnetized ferromagnetic insulator. The…
The study of exotic superconductivity in two dimensions has been a central theme in solid state and materials research communities. Experimentally exploring and identifying new fascinating interface superconductors with a high transition…
The recent discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ under high pressure has stimulated intensive investigations concerning its paring mechanism and a correct description of its effective low-energy physics.…
A spin-triplet superconductor can harbor Majorana bound states that can be used in topological quantum computing. Recently, K2Cr3As3 and its variants with critical temperature Tc as high as 8 K have emerged as a new class of superconductors…
Some topological insulators become superconducting when doped with Cu and Pd. Superconductivity in a non-superconductor may be induced by proximity effect: i.e. Contacting a non-superconductor with a superconductor. The superconducting…
When certain elemental metals like Cu, Sr and Nb are intercalated between the layers of Bi$_2$Se$_3$, a topological insulator, the intercalated systems superconduct with critical temperatures around 3 K. Naturally, in all these cases, the…
V3Si, a classical silicide superconductor with relatively high TC (~16 K), is promising for constructing silicon-based superconducting devices and hetero-structures. However, real space characterization on its surfaces and superconducting…
Superconductivity has been first observed in TlNi$_2$Se$_2$ at T$_C$=3.7 K and appears to involve heavy electrons with an effective mass $m^*$=14$\sim$20 $m_b$, as inferred from the normal state electronic specific heat and the upper…
Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) offer an extremely rich material platform in the exploration of unconventional superconductivity. The unconventional aspects include exotic coupling mechanisms such as the Ising pairing, a complex…
We studied enhanced superconductivity in point contacts (PCs) based on a type-I Weyl semimetal trigonal t-PtBi2 using both normal metal (Ag, Cu, Pt) and ferromagnetic (Fe, Co, Ni) tips by measuring the differential resistance dV/dI(V)…
Unconventional superconductivity is characterized by the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the macroscopic superconducting wavefunction in addition to the gauge symmetry breaking, such as rotational-symmetry breaking with respect to the…
