Superconductivity in binary FeS single crystals

ORAL

Abstract

FeS is the third recently discovered member of the superconducting binary iron-chalcogenide series that includes the well-known FeSe and FeSe$_{\mathrm{1-x}}$Te$_{\mathrm{x}}$ members. Grown via hydrothermal techniques, single crystals of FeS have been characterized using transport, thermodynamic and magnetic techniques. We will review experimental results and compare with the unconventional superconducting properties of the selenide and telluride counterparts.
