Multiband superconductivity in BiS2-based layered compounds.

A mean-field treatment is presented of a square lattice two-orbital-model for [Formula: see text] taking into account intra- and inter-orbital superconductivity. A rich phase diagram involving both types of superconductivity is presented as a function of the ratio between the couplings of electrons in the same and different orbitals ([Formula: see text]) and electron doping x. With the help of ...

Discovery of BiS2-Based Superconductor and Material Design Concept

In 2012, we discovered new layered superconductors whose superconducting states emerge in the BiS2 layers. Since their crystal structure, composed of alternate stacks of BiS2 conduction layers and electrically insulating (blocking) layers, is similar to those of cuprate and Fe-based superconductors, many researchers have explored new BiS2-based superconductors and have studied the physical and ...

Role of valence changes and nanoscale atomic displacements in BiS2-based superconductors

Superconductivity within layered crystal structures has attracted sustained interest among condensed matter community, primarily due to their exotic superconducting properties. EuBiS2F is a newly discovered member in the BiS2-based superconducting family, which shows superconductivity at 0.3 K without extrinsic doping. With 50 at.% Ce substitution for Eu, superconductivity is enhanced with Tc i...
