Title:   Interfacial high temperature superconductivity studied by ARPES and STS

Time:  2:00 – 3:00 PM, June 19, 2015, Friday

Place: Conference room 201, Build 6, HPSTAR (Shanghai)

Host:  Dr. Xiao-Jia Chen


Abstract:

The discovery of high temperature superconductivity in single-layer FeSe/SrTiO3 provides a rich playground for exploring novel superconductivity in the ultra-thin limit. In this talk, I will show our recent progress in both tuning the superconductivity and studying the pairing symmetry of FeSe/SrTiO3.  By interfacial engineering, we were able to raise the superconducting gap opening temperature to 75 K in FeSe/BTO/STO heterostructure. Through in-situ STM studies, we investigated the superconductivity pairing symmetry of single layer FeSe by studying the quasi-particle interference (QPI) and impurity induced bound states, and demonstrate the plain s-wave paring symmetry for single-layer FeSe/SrTiO3. Moreover, I will introduce our new discovery of the signature of high temperature superconductivity near 60 K in electron doped Sr2IrO4 achieved through surface dosing technique.
