Superconductivity in a Bulk Moire Superlattice Material
Subham Naik, Paul Monson, Susanta Manna +7
Moire materials provide a versatile platform realizing emergent electronic states arising from enhanced correlation due to flat bands. A variety of phenomena including superconduct…
On the synthesis methodologies to prepare PbCu(PO)O -- phase, composition, magnetic analysis and absence of superconductivity
Gohil S. Thakur, Manuel Schulze, Michael Ruck
We present the results of our various attempts to prepare the presumably room-temperature and ambient-pressure superconducting compound PbCu(PO)O (LK-99). We experiment…
Enhanced zero-bias conductance peak and splitting at mesoscopic interfaces between an -wave superconductor and a 3D Dirac semimetal
Leena Aggarwal, Sirshendu Gayen, Shekhar Das +3
Mesoscopic point contacts between elemental metals and the topological 3D Dirac semimetal CdAs have been recently shown to be superconducting with unconventional pairing wh…

From our powder x ray diffraction pattern, electrical transport and magnetic studies we report the effect of isovalent Se substitution at S sites in the newly discovered systems Eu…
Unusual mixed valence of Eu in two new materials EuSr2Bi2S4F4 and Eu2SrBi2S4F4: Mössbauer and X-ray photoemission Spectroscopy investigations
Zeba Haque, Gohil Singh Thakur, Rangasamy Parthasarathy +9
We have synthesized two new Eu-based compounds, EuSr2Bi2S4F4 and Eu2SrBi2S4F4 which are derivatives of Eu3Bi2S4F4, an intrinsic superconductor with Tc = 1.5 K. They belong to a tet…
