Interface-Induced High-Temperature Superconductivity in Single Unit-Cell FeSe Films on SrTiO3

TLDR

Abstract
We report high transition temperature superconductivity in one unit-cell (UC) thick FeSe films grown on a Se-etched SrTiO3 (001) substrate by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). A superconducting gap as large as 20 meV and the magnetic field induced vortex state revealed by in situ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) suggest that the superconductivity of the 1 UC FeSe films could occur around 77 K. The control transport measurement shows that the onset superconductivity temperature is well above 50 K. Our work not only demonstrates a powerful way for finding new superconductors and for raising TC, but also provides a well-defined platform for systematic studies of the mechanism of unconventional superconductivity by using different superconducting materials and substrates.

TL;DR: FeSe/STO is confirmed as an ideal material for studying high-Tc superconductivity by means of in situ four-point probe electrical transport measurements, and rekindle the long-standing idea that electron pairing at interfaces between two different materials can be tailored to achieve high-temperaturesuperconductivity.

Interfacial mode coupling as the origin of the enhancement of T(c) in FeSe films on SrTiO3.

TL;DR: High-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy results reveal an unexpected characteristic of the single-unit-cell FeSe/SrTiO3 system: shake-off bands suggesting the presence of bosonic modes, most probably oxygen optical phonons in SrTiO2, which couple to the FeSe electrons with only a small momentum transfer.
