In 2012, we discovered superconductivity in Bi4O4S3 and LaO1− x F x BiS2, whose crystal
structures are composed of alternate stacks of a BiS2-type conduction layer and a blocking …

A novel family of superconductors based on BiS 2-based superconducting layers were
discovered in 2012. In short order, other BiS 2-based superconductors with the same or …

Thermoelectric materials, which can convert heat into electricity and vice versa, have
essential applications in power generation, thermocouples, sensors, and cooling. In the past …

We discuss the electronic structure, lattice dynamics, and electron-phonon interaction of the
newly discovered superconductor LaO 0.5 F 0.5 BiS 2 using density-functional-based …

BiS2-based LaO1− x F x BiS2 (x= 0.5) becomes superconductive at T c= 2.5 K. Electrical
resistivity and magnetization measurements are performed under pressure to determine the …

We report a strategy to induce superconductivity in the BiS 2-based compound LaOBiS 2.
Instead of substituting F for O, we increase the charge-carrier density (electron dope) via …

Superconductivity (SC) and charge-density wave (CDW) are two contrasting yet relevant
collective electronic states, which have received sustained interest for decades. Here, we …

Electrical resistivity measurements as a function of temperature between 1 and 300 K were
performed at various pressures up to 3 GPa on the superconducting layered compounds Ln …

Neutron scattering measurements have been performed on polycrystalline samples of the
newly discovered layered superconductor LaO 0.5 F 0.5 BiS 2 and its nonsuperconducting …

Abstract F-substituted ROBiS 2 (R= La, Ce, Nd) superconducting single crystals with
different F concentrations were grown successfully using a CsCl/KCl flux. All crystals …
