Abstract Recently, 2D Mo2C, a new member of the MXene family, has attracted much attention due to the exotic superconducting properties discovered in 2D α-Mo2C. Here, not only 2D α-Mo2C but also 2D β-Mo2C crystal sheets with distinct disordered carbon distributions were successfully grown. 2D β-Mo2C shows a much stronger superconductivity than 2D α-Mo2C, and their superconductivities have different hydrostatic pressure responses. The superconducting transition temperature Tc of 2D α-Mo2C shows a dome-shaped profile under pressure, implying the existence of two competing effects arising from phononic and electronic properties, while for 2D β-Mo2C, Tc decreases monotonically with increasing pressure, possibly due to phonon stiffening. These results indicate that the electronic properties have a more important influence on the superconductivity in 2D α-Mo2C compared to 2D β-Mo2C. The ordered and disordered carbon distributions in 2D α-Mo2C and β-Mo2C, respectively, may be the underlying origin for their different electronic and superconducting properties.

We successfully developed the potential parameters for simulation of MgB2. With these potential parameters, we calculate the lattice parameters and volume variations with pressure up to 240GPa. All these results agree well with experimental data under 40GPa and provide reasonable tendencies from 40GPa to 240GPa. By employing the McMillan expression, it is found that the lattice stiffening dominants the behavior of Tc under pressure in the scope of BCS theory. Using our calculated Grüneisen parameter G g , the simulated pressure effect on Tc accords well with experimental results. Our result shows that the Tc of MgB2 can be destroyed by high pressure.

Effects of plasma oxidation on superconducting and normal properties were studied for rf-sputtered Y-Ba-Cu-O films. The plasma oxidation was performed in a mixture gas of Ar-50%O 2 both before and after annealing. The oxidation enhances superconducting transition temperature, T c , and improves metal-like behavior of normal resistance as well. Typical films obtained after the oxidation exhibited the transition with an onset at 94 K and with zero resistance below 82 K. The improvement was found to hold for more than 30 days after oxidation.

Hydrostatic pressure measurements of the superconducting transition temperature were made as a function of x in La2−xSrx CuO4. A sharp change in the behavior occurs between x = 0.2 and 0.25 in that the pressure derivative goes from positive to essentially zero. This result is discussed in the context of band structure models.

The pressure effect on the superconducting transition temperature (T c ) of the newly discovered compound with a nominal composition La 3 Ni 2 B 2 N x with a T c ~14 K has been determined up to 1.5 GPa. T c was found to decrease linearly at a rate of –0.9 K/GPa, which is much greater than that of similar superconducting compounds, LuNi 2 B 2 C and Lu 2 Ni 2 B 2 C 2, while the compound resistivity remains unchanged. Reasons for the observation remain unknown.

A series of La 2-x1 Sr x1 CuO 4+δ/ La 2-x2 Sr x2 CuO 4+δ multilayers were epitaxially grown on (001) LaSrAlO 4 and (001) SrTiO 3 substrates by laser ablation, where x1 = 0.0, 0.08 (underdoped) and x2 = 0.24, 0.32, 0.45 (over-doped). Before the depositions of each multilayer, all of the single layers were deposited and characterized, and then the multilayers were deposited by using the same deposition condition except shifting targets for laser ablation. These multilayers are highly c-axis oriented. Several modulation wavelengths of the sublayers were selected for preparing the multilayers. The resistance measurements of these single layered films of La 2-x1 Sr x1 CuO 4+δ, La 2-x2 Sr x2 CuO 4+δ, and multilayers of La 2-x1 Sr x1 CuO 4+δ/ La 2-x2 Sr x2 CuO 4+δ were performed and compared. The transport measurements suggest that the charge redistribution may be a dominant factor for the superconducting transition temperature in low temperatures.
