Anomalous Pressure Dependence of the Superconducting Transition Temperature in FeSe1-x Studied by DC Magnetic Measurements

The pressure dependence of superconducting transition temperature $T_{\rm c}$ has been investigated through the DC magnetic measurements for FeSe$_{0.8}$ and FeSe$_{1.0}$. For both samples, with increasing pressure $P$, the $T_{\rm c}$$-$$P$ curve exhibits a two-step increase, showing a local maximum of $\sim$11 K at $P$$\sim$1.0 GPa and a rapid increase with an extremely large pressure coefficient for $P$$>$1.5 GPa. $T_{\rm c}$ saturates at $\sim$25 K (21 K) in FeSe$_{1.0}$ (FeSe$_{0.8}$) for $P$$>$3 GPa. A rapid decrease in superconducting volume fraction is observed with an increase in $T_{\rm c}$ above 1.5 GPa, suggesting the presence of electronic inhomogeneity.

Superconducting Transition in the $β$-Pyrochlore AOs$_2$O$_6$ (A=Cs, Rb, K) under Pressure

Pressure dependence of superconducting transition temperature $T_{\rm c}$ has been determined through the DC magnetic measurements under pressure up to $P$=10 GPa for $β$-pyrochlore oxides AOs$_2$O$_6$ with A=Cs ($T_{\rm c}$=3.3 K), Rb (6.3 K) and K (9.6 K). Both for A=Rb and Cs, $T_{\rm c}$ increases with increasing $P$ and shows a saturation at $T_{\rm cm}$$\sim$8.8 K, which is considered as the upper limit of $T_{\rm c}$ inherent in AOs$_2$O$_6$. In contrast, the $T_{\rm c}-P$ curve for KOs$_2$O$_6$ shows a sharp maximum of $\sim$10 K at $P$$\sim$0.5 GPa, and $T_{\rm c}$ is higher than $T_{\rm cm}$ for 0$\leq$$P$$\leq$1.5GPa, suggesting the enhanced superconductivity due to the rattling of K ions.
