Title: Multiband Te p Based Superconductivity of Ta₄Pd₃Te₁₆

Abstract

We recently discovered that Ta₄Pd₃Te_{16 is a superconductor that has been suggested to be an unconventional superconductor near m}agnetism. Here, we report electronic structure calculations showing that despite the layered crystal structure the material is an anisotropic three-dimensional (3D) metal. The Fermi surface contains prominent one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) features, including nested 1D sheets, a 2D cylindrical section, and a 3D sheet. Moreover, the electronic states that make up the Fermi surface are mostly derived from Te p states with small Ta d and Pd d contributions. This places the compound far from magnetic instabilities. The results are discussed in terms of multiband superconductivity.

Incommensurate two-dimensional checkerboard charge density wave in the low-dimensional superconductor ${Ta}_{4} {Pd}_{3} {Te}_{16}$

Journal Article Shi, Zhenzhong ; Kuhn, S. J. ; Flicker, F. ; ... - Physical Review Research

We report the observation of a two-dimensional (2D) checkerboard charge density wave (CDW) in the low-dimensional superconductor Ta₄Pd₃ Te₁₆. By determining its CDW properties across the temperature-pressure (T-P) phase diagram and comparing with prototypical CDW materials, we conclude that Ta₄Pd₃Te₁₆ features (a) an incommensurate CDW with a mixed character of dimensions [quasi-1D (Q1D) considering its needlelike shape along the b axis, Q2D as the CDW has checkerboard wave vectors, and 3D because of CDW projections along all three axes], and (b) one of the weakest CDWs compared to its superconductivity (SC), i.e., enhanced SC with respect to CDW, suggesting anmore »« less

Multiband semimetallic electronic structure of superconducting Ta₂PdSe₅

Journal Article Singh, David Joseph - PLoS ONE

We report the electronic structure and related properties of the superconductor Ta₂PdSe₅ as determined from density functional calculations. The Fermi surface has two disconnected sheets, both derived from bands of primarily chalcogenide p states. These are a corrugated hole cylinder and a heavier complex shaped electron sheet. The sheets contain 0.048 holes and a compensating number of electrons per formula unit, making the material a semimetallic superconductor. The results support the presence of two band superconductivity, although a discrepancy in the specific heat is noted. This discrepancy is discussed as a possible consequence of Pd deficiency in samples.

Electronic structure of La/sub 4/BaCu/sub 5/O/sub 13-//sub x/

Journal Article Herman, F ; Kasowski, R V ; Hsu, W Y - Phys. Rev. B: Condens. Matter; (United States)

Although La/sub 4/BaCu/sub 5/O/sub 13-//sub x/ is metallic and chemically and structurally similar to known high-T/sub c/ copper-oxide superconductors, it is not superconducting above 5 K, at least for the observed values of x slightly above and below 0. In order to explore possible reasons why this material is not a high-T/sub c/ superconductor, we carried out detailed energy-band calculations. Even though the Cu-O network of La/sub 4/BaCu/sub 5/O/sub 13-//sub x/ may be regarded as an array of one-dimensional (1D) strands, we find that the interstrand coupling is actually sufficiently strong to make the band structure more nearly 3D thanmore »« less

Hot-lines topology and the fate of the spin resonance mode in three-dimensional unconventional superconductors

Journal Article Chen, Fei ; Fernandes, Rafael M. ; Christensen, Morten H. - Physical Review. B

In the quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) copper- and iron-based superconductors, the onset of superconductivity is accompanied by a prominent peak in the magnetic spectrum at momenta close to the wave-vector of the nearby antiferromagnetic state. Such a peak is well described in terms of a spin resonance mode, i.e., a spin-1 exciton theoretically predicted for quasi-2D superconductors with a sign-changing gap. The same theories, however, indicate that such a resonance mode should be absent in a three-dimensional (3D) system with a spherical Fermi surface. This raises the question of the fate of the spin resonance mode in layered unconventional superconductors that aremore »« less
