The influence of dispersed ZrO particles on the microstructure evolution and the superconducting properties of a Nb-Ti alloy was investigated. The studied materials were prepared by different methods including mechanical alloying (MA) and arc-melting. The obtained samples were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM).

Leveraging the reciprocal-space proximity effect between superconducting bulk and topological surface states (TSSs) offers a promising way to topological superconductivity. However, elucidating the mutual influence of bulk and TSSs on topological superconductivity remains a challenge. Here, we report pioneering transport evidence of a thickness-dependent transition from conventional to unconventional superconductivity in 2M-phase WS (2M-WS).

In metallic transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), which remain superconducting down to single-layer thickness, the critical temperature T decreases for Nb-based, and increases for Ta-based materials. This contradicting trend is puzzling, impeding the development of a unified theory. Here we study the thickness-evolution of superconducting tunneling spectra in TaSheterostructures.

The pursuit of room-temperature superconductivity at an accessible synthetic pressure has been a long-held dream for both theoretical and experimental physicists. Recently, a controversial report by Dasenbrock-Gammon et al. claims that the nitrogen-doped lutetium trihydride exhibits room-temperature superconductivity at near-ambient pressure.
