abstract

Re-based superconductors provide a rich platform for the study of unconventional superconductivity. We have investigated the superconducting properties of Re$_{8}$NbTa, a new noncentrosymmetric cubic ($\alpha$-Mn structure) rhenium-based ternary superconductor using transport, magnetization, specific heat, and muon spin rotation/relaxation ($\mu$SR) measurements. Specific heat and transverse field $\mu$SR measurements suggest moderately coupled fully gapped superconductivity, well described by BCS theory. However, our zero-field $\mu$SR measurements reveal a small internal field onsetting around the superconducting T$_c$, indicating that the superconducting order parameter breaks the time-reversal symmetry.

  1. Strongly correlated electronic superconductivity in the noncentrosymmetric Re-Os-based high/medium-entropy alloys

    cond-mat.supr-con 2025-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Five new Re-Os high-entropy alloys are shown to be type-II superconductors with Tc between 4.2 and 5.1 K, plus a contested strong-correlation signature.
