主 题:s-wave superconductor Dirac semimetal topological superconductor
摘 要:A feasible strategy for realizing the Majorana fermions is searching for a simple compound with both bulk superconductivity and Dirac surface *** this paper,we perform calculations of electronic band structure,the Fermi surface,and the surface states,and measure the resistivity,magnetization,and specific heat of a TlSb compound with a CsCl-type *** band structure calculations show that TlSb is a Dirac semimetal when spin-orbit coupling is *** is first determined to be a type-Ⅱsuperconductor with T_(c)=4.38 K,Hc1(0)=148 Oe,H_(c2)(0)=1.12 T,andκ_(GL)=*** also confirm that TlSb is a moderately coupled s-wave *** we cannot determine the band near the Fermi level EF that is responsible for superconductivity,its coexistence with topological surface states implies that the TlSb compound may be a simple material platform to realize the fault-tolerant quantum computations.
