Optimizing the superconducting transition temperature and upper critical field of Sn $_{1 - x}$ In $_{x}$ Te

Journal Article Zhong, R. D. ; Schneeloch, J. A. ; Shi, X. Y. ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

Sn 1 - x In x Te is a possible candidate for topological superconductivity. Previous work has shown that substitution of In for Sn in the topological crystalline insulator SnTe results in superconductivity, with the transition temperature, T c , growing with In concentration. We have performed a systematic investigation of Sn 1 - x In x Te for a broad range of x , synthesizing single crystals (by a modified floating-zone method) as well as polycrystalline samples. The samples have been characterized by x-ray diffraction, resistivity, and magnetization. For the single crystals, the maximum T c is obtained atmore »« less

${}^{77}{Se}$ NMR investigation of the $K_{x}$ Fe $_{2 - y}$ Se $_{2}$ high- $T_{c}$ superconductor ( $T_{c} = 33$ K)

Journal Article Torchetti, D. A. ; Fu, M. ; Christensen, D. C. ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

We report comprehensive 77 Se NMR measurements on a single crystalline sample of the recently discovered FeSe-based high-temperature superconductor K x Fe 2 - y Se 2 ( T c = 33 K) in a broad temperature range up to 290 K. Despite deviations from the stoichiometric KFe 2 Se 2 composition, we observed 77 Se NMR line shapes as narrow as 4.5 kHz under a magnetic field applied along the crystal c axis, and found no evidence for co-existence of magnetic order with superconductivity. On the other hand, the 77 Se NMR line shape splits into two peaks withmore »« less

Surface Collective Modes in the Topological Insulators ${Bi}_{2} {Se}_{3}$ and ${Bi}_{0.5} {Sb}_{1.5} {Te}_{3 - x} {Se}_{x}$

Journal Article Kogar, A. ; Vig, S. ; Thaler, A. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

We used low-energy, momentum-resolved inelastic electron scattering to study surface collective modes of the three-dimensional topological insulators Bi ₂Se ₃ and Bi _0.5Sb _1.5Te _3-xSe _x . Our goal was to identify the “spin plasmon” predicted by Raghu and co-workers [Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 116401 (2010)]. Instead, we found that the primary collective mode is a surface plasmon arising from the bulk, free carriers in these materials. This excitation dominates the spectral weight in the bosonic function of the surface χ '' ( q , ω ) at THz energy scales, and is the most likely origin of a quasiparticlemore »« less
