Abstract:

Superconductivity of iron chalocogenides is strongly enhanced under applied pressure yet its underlying pairing mechanism remains elusive. Here, we present a quantum oscillations study up to 45 T in the high-T_c phase of tetragonal FeSe_0.82S_0.18 up to 22 kbar. Under applied pressure, the quasi-two-dimensional multi-band Fermi surface expands and the effective masses remain large, whereas the superconductivity displays a threefold enhancement. Comparing with chemical pressure tuning of FeSe_1−xS_x, the Fermi surface expands in a similar manner but the effective masses and T_c are suppressed. These differences may be attributed to the changes in the density of states influenced by the chalcogen height, which could promote stronger spin fluctuations pairing under pressure. Furthermore, our study also reveals unusual scattering and broadening of superconducting transitions in the high-pressure phase, indicating the presence of a complex pairing mechanism.

Abstract:

This dataset was created by performing temperature dependendent resistivity and tunnel diode oscillator studies of different single crystals of FeSe0.89S0.11. The experiment were performed using diamond anvil cells and low temperature cryostats both in Oxford and at the HMFL in Nijmegen. The data are related to the manuscript with the same title: Collapse of Metallicity and High-Tc Superconductivity in the High-Pressure phase of FeSe0.89S0.11 (https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.06824) to appear in npj Quantum Materials.
