Intermetallics: Superconductivity coexists with electride behavior Coexistence of electride behavior and superconductivity is observed in a hexagonal phase of a Nb5Ir3 intermetallic with tunable electronic properties by introducing foreign atoms. A team led by Yaoqing Zhang and Hideo Hosono from Japan Science and Technology Agency and Tokyo Institute of Technology report a new hexagonal phase in the phase diagram of Nb–Ir binary intermetallics with interesting interplay of superconductivity and electride state. The electride state is formed by electrons detaching from the atoms but localizing in a one-dimensional channel space. This electride becomes a superconductor below a transition temperature of about 9.4 K, which could be enhanced to 10.5 K upon filling interstitial cavities with foreign oxygens. The results suggest a general rule governing the formation of electrides and form the basis for novel stable functional electrides. |
