Charge order landscape and competition with superconductivity in kagome metals

In the kagome metals AV 3 Sb 5 (A = K, Rb, Cs), three-dimensional charge order is the primary instability that sets the stage for other collective orders to emerge, including unidirectional stripe order, orbital flux order, electronic nematicity and superconductivity. In this report we use high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to determine the microscopic structure of three-dimensional charge order in AV 3 Sb 5 and its interplay with superconductivity. Our approach is based on identifying an unusual splitting of kagome bands induced by three-dimensional charge order, which provides a sensitive way to refine the spatial charge patterns in neighbouring kagome planes. Here we found a marked dependence of the three-dimensional charge order structure on composition and doping. The observed difference between CsV 3 Sb 5 and the other compounds potentially underpins the double-dome superconductivity in CsV 3 (Sb,Sn) 5 and the suppression of T c in KV 3 Sb 5 and RbV 3 Sb 5 . Our results provide fresh insights into the rich phase diagram of AV 3 Sb 5 .

Investigation of properties of CdSeTe/Sb and Sb/CdSeTe stacks

The effect of Sb inclusion in CdSeTe thin films was examined. CdSeTe alloys were grown by co-evaporation, either on 5 nm thick electron-beam evaporated Sb layers (Sb/CdSeTe) or coated with Sb post-deposition (CdSeTe/Sb). Sb inclusion improved CdSeTe grain structure, a critical factor for device performance, with average grain size increasing from 0.6 to 1.5 μm. All samples crystallized on annealing to the cubic structure, with a change in film orientation from (111) to random or (220). The presence of Sb in CdSeTe/Sb or Sb/CdSeTe samples, however, had a limited effect on the carrier concentration compared to Sb-free samples. Time resolved photoluminescence showed Sb inclusion increased decay lifetimes, with τ1 = 0.8 ns for and τ2 = 6.9 ns for the Sb/CdSeTe sample.

There are a spread of K–Sb bond distances ranging from 3.56–3.84 Å. In the fifth K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Sb3- atoms. There are a spread of K–Sb bond distances ranging from 3.56–3.74 Å. Sn4+ is bonded to four Sb3- atoms to form SnSb4 tetrahedra that share corners with eight KSb4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one KSb4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one SnSb4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sn–Sb bond distances ranging from 2.87–2.96 Å. There are three inequivalent Sb3- sites. In the first Sb3- site, Sb3- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to seven K1+ and one Sn4+ atom. In the second Sb3- site, Sb3- is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to seven K1+ and one Sn4+ atom. In the third Sb3- site, Sb3- is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to five K1+ and two equivalent Sn4+ atoms.
