Abstract We investigate the effect of disorder on the superconducting mechanism of MgB2 thin films using low-energy ion irradiation. The c-axis lattice constant and T c of MgB2 thin films change systematically as the magnitude of disorder, which corresponds to the value of average displacements per atom (dpaavg ), increases. Here, dpaavg is controlled by the amount of irradiated ions. The dpaavg dependence of the electron-phonon coupling constants (λ) is estimated using the McMillan equation. For dpaavg ≤ 0.049, λ is linearly proportional to dpaavg . On the other hand, for dpaavg > 0.049, the T c of the disordered MgB2 deviates from the linear fitting curve, and insulating behavior is observed in the normal state resistivity. These results indicate that the superconducting mechanism of MgB2 can be changed by the electronic system caused by disorder strength affecting the electron-phonon coupling constant λ.

In metals, the details of the Fermi surface and the magnitude of the matrix elements connecting different points defined on it determine most of their transport properties, which are limited by the electron-phonon coupling and the scattering by impurities. [...]
