Effect of Synthesis Conditions on Superconducting of Uranium Ditelluride
ORAL
Abstract
Uranium ditelluride was recently identified as a candidate spin triplet superconductor, however this discovery has come with some controversy surrounding the nature of the superconducting transition. Much of the confusion between properties reported by different laboratories can be attributed to the sensitivity UTe2 shows to synthetic conditions, with different approaches leading to wildly different superconducting transition temperatures, or even full suppression of desirable properties. In this talk I will summarize the effects that preparation technique has on the superconducting properties of UTe2.
