Fast synthesis of Fe1.1Se1-xTex superconductors in a self-heating and furnace-free way

Guang-Hua Liu, Tian-Long Xia, Xuan-Yi Yuan +3

A fast and furnace-free method of combustion synthesis is employed for the first time to synthesize iron-based superconductors. Using this method, Fe1.1Se1-xTex (0<=x<=1) samples c…
