The coexistence and competition between superconductivity and electronic orders, such as spin or charge density waves, have been a central issue in high transition-temperature (T-c) superconductors. Unlike other iron-based superconductors, FeSe exhibits nematic ordering without magnetism whose relationship with its superconductivity remains unclear. Moreover, a pressure-induced fourfold increase of Tc has been reported, which poses a profound mystery. Here we report high-pressure magnetotransport measurements in FeSe up to similar to 15 GPa, which uncover the dome shape of magnetic phase superseding the nematic order. Above similar to 6GPa the sudden enhancement of superconductivity (T-c <= 38.3 K) accompanies a suppression of magnetic order, demonstrating their competing nature with very similar energy scales. Above the magnetic dome, we find anomalous transport properties suggesting a possible pseudogap formation, whereas linear-in-temperature resistivity is observed in the normal states of the high-T-c phase above 6 GPa. The obtained phase diagram highlights unique features of FeSe among iron-based superconductors, but bears some resemblance to that of high-T-c cuprates.

Nematically Templated Vortex Lattices in Superconducting FeSe

Sang Yong Song, Chengyun Hua, Luke Bell, Wonhee Ko, Hans Fangohr, Jiaqiang Yan, Gabor B. Halasz, Eugene F. Dumitrescu, Benjamin J. Lawrie, Petro Maksymovych

Summary: New pathways are needed to control the morphology and dynamics of superconducting vortex lattices in order to transform them into a computing platform. It has been discovered that nematic twin boundaries can align superconducting vortices in adjacent terraces. Different structural phases of the vortex lattice can be assumed by varying the density and morphology of the twin boundaries. These findings have implications for the design and control of strain-based topological quantum computing architectures.

Current-Phase Relation of a WTe2 Josephson Junction

Martin Endres, Artem Kononov, Hasitha Suriya Arachchige, Jiaqiang Yan, David Mandrus, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Christian Schoenenberger

Summary: In this study, we measured a 4N-periodic switching current through an asymmetric SQUID formed by the higher-order topological insulator WTe2. We found that a high asymmetry in critical current and negligible loop inductance alone were not sufficient to reliably measure the current-phase relation. Instead, we discovered that our measurement was heavily influenced by additional inductances originating from the self-formed PdTex inside the junction. We developed a method to numerically recover the current-phase relation and found that the 1.5 μm long junction was best described in the short ballistic limit. Our results highlight the complexity of subtle inductance effects that can lead to misleading topological signatures in transport measurements.

Kohei Matsuura, Masaki Roppongi, Mingwei Qiu, Qi Sheng, Yipeng Cai, Kohtaro Yamakawa, Zurab Guguchia, Ryan P. Day, Kenji M. Kojima, Andrea Damascelli, Yuichi Sugimura, Mikihiko Saito, Takaaki Takenaka, Kota Ishihara, Yuta Mizukami, Kenichiro Hashimoto, Yilun Gu, Shengli Guo, Licheng Fu, Zheneng Zhang, Fanlong Ning, Guoqiang Zhao, Guangyang Dai, Changqing Jin, James W. Beare, Graeme M. Luke, Yasutomo J. Uemura, Takasada Shibauchi

Summary: Iron-chalcogenide superconductors FeSe1-xSx have unique electronic properties and the nature of superconductivity with nematicity is important for understanding unconventional superconductivity. Recent experiments show that the superconducting state in FeSe1-xSx breaks time-reversal symmetry and exhibits ultranodal pair state. The presence of broken TRS and suppressed superfluid density suggests the existence of two different superconducting states separated by the nematic critical point.

Bulk evidence of anisotropic s-wave pairing with no sign change in the kagome superconductor CsV3Sb5

M. Roppongi, K. Ishihara, Y. Tanaka, K. Ogawa, K. Okada, S. Liu, K. Mukasa, Y. Mizukami, Y. Uwatoko, R. Grasset, M. Konczykowski, B. R. Ortiz, S. D. Wilson, K. Hashimoto, T. Shibauchi

Summary: The recently discovered kagome superconductors AV(3)Sb(5) (A = K, Rb, Cs) exhibit unusual CDW orders with symmetry breaking. The symmetry of the superconductivity inside the CDW phase is still unknown. Impurity effects in CsV3Sb5 were studied using electron irradiation as a phase-sensitive probe, and the results indicate that CsV3Sb5 is a non-chiral, anisotropic s-wave superconductor with no sign change.

Summary: We have discovered a simple method to fabricate atomic-scale wires with various arrangements, including stripes, X-junctions, Y-junctions, and nanorings. These wires are grown on graphite substrates by pulsed-laser deposition and have precise dimensions. Our findings suggest that nonequilibrium reaction-diffusion processes are crucial for the formation of atomic patterns, and this discovery opens up new possibilities for constructing quantum networks at the atomic scale.

Coupling of magnetism, crystal lattice, and transport in EuCuP and EuCuAs

Andrew F. May, Eleanor M. Clements, Heda Zhang, Raphael P. Hermann, Jiaqiang Yan, Michael A. McGuire

Summary: EuCuP and EuCuAs were studied to investigate their magnetic phase transitions and magnetoelastic coupling. EuCuP exhibited two closely spaced features in thermal expansion and specific heat capacity around the Curie temperature, possibly indicating a cascading magnetic transition or an electronic transition closely coupled to the magnetic ordering. Stronger zero-field magnetoelastic coupling was observed in EuCuP compared to EuCuAs, which was attributed to the dominant ferromagnetic interaction in EuCuP and antiferromagnetic order in EuCuAs. Anisotropic thermal expansion and strong ferromagnetic correlations were observed in EuCuAs above T-N. Both compounds showed similar electrical and thermoelectric transport behaviors, suggesting intrinsic defects and potential for achieving narrow-gap semiconducting or semimetallic behavior with defect tuning.

Superconductivity by alloying the topological insulator SnBi2Te4

Michael A. McGuire, Heda Zhang, Andrew F. May, Satoshi Okamoto, Robert G. Moore, Xiaoping Wang, Clement Girod, Sean M. Thomas, Filip Ronning, Jiaqiang Yan

Summary: Alloying indium into SnBi2Te4 induces bulk superconductivity with critical temperatures up to 1.85 K and upper critical fields up to about 14 kOe. This is confirmed by electrical and thermal measurements, and the presence of a superconducting gap near 0.25 meV is suggested. The superconductivity is type-II and the existence of topological surface states has been verified. The analogy with MnBi2Te4 motivates further interest in this family of compounds, which have potential for the study of topological superconductivity.

Summary: The use of work-function-mediated charge transfer is explored for nanoscale electrostatic control of atomic layers. A thin layer of a-RuCl3 is found to induce emergent nano-optical behavior in hBN through interlayer charge polarization. The propagation length of hBN phonon polaritons is significantly reduced by the interfacial dipole formed by a-RuCl3, and a novel resonance is observed in nano-optical spectroscopy experiments. These findings demonstrate the potential of charge-transfer heterostructures for tailoring optoelectronic properties of 2D insulators.

Wonhee Ko, Sang Yong Song, Jiaqiang Yan, Jose L. Lado, Petro Maksymovych

Summary: This study introduces the unique capability of tunneling Andreev reflection (TAR) to probe unconventional pairing symmetry in low-dimensional unconventional superconductors. By studying the paradigmatic FeSe superconductor, we provide direct evidence of sign-changing order parameter, reveal the existence of two superconducting gaps, and confirm the local suppression of superconductivity along the nematic twin boundary. These findings enable new atomic-scale insight into microscopic, inhomogeneous, and interfacial properties of emerging quantum materials.

Lifen Shi, Binbin Ruan, Pengtao Yang, Ningning Wang, Pengfei Shan, Ziyi Liu, Jianping Sun, Yoshiya Uwatoko, Genfu Chen, Zhian Ren, Bosen Wang, Jinguang Cheng

Summary: We report the pressure-driven evolution of superconducting properties in the strong-coupling superconductor Ti4Ir2O. The superconducting transition temperature and upper critical field exhibit unusual behaviors under pressure, with a low pressure coefficient of Tc and a smooth crossover of Bc2 (0) beyond the Pauli paramagnetic limit. The findings provide insights into the resistance of this intriguing superconductor to external compression and strong magnetic fields.

Modulation vector of the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state in CeCoIn5 revealed by high-resolution magnetostriction measurements

Shunichiro Kittaka, Yohei Kono, Kaito Tsunashima, Daisuke Kimoto, Makoto Yokoyama, Yusei Shimizu, Toshiro Sakakibara, Minoru Yamashita, Kazushige Machida

Summary: The Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state in the superconductor CeCoIn5 is characterized by two anomalies in the magnetostriction along the c axis, parallel to the magnetic-field orientation, while no anomaly is observed along the a-axis direction. This uniaxial expansion could be attributed to the FFLO modulation vector parallel to the applied magnetic field.
