Abstract

Discovery of superconductivity in BiS2 layers based systems has attracted tremendous interest of both experimentalists and theoreticians from condensed matter physics community. In this article, a review of our high pressure studies on BiS2 based superconductors is given. The pressure effects on magnetic, transport properties and superconducting transitions are discussed for different types of doped and undoped BiS2-based compounds such as Bi4O4S3 and ReO/FBiS2 (Re = rare-earth). Pressure tends to decrease the magnetic transition temperature in the undoped or only slightly doped compounds. The superconducting Tc increases with low pressure for under doped BiS2 based compounds, remains approximately constant for optimal doping, and decreases linearly in the overdoped range. Under pressure, the semiconducting behavior in the normal state is suppressed markedly and monotonically, whereas the evolution of Tc is nonlinear, the superconductivity in the BiS2 layer favors the Fermi surface at the boundary between the semiconducting and metallic behaviors. However, strong suppression of the semiconducting and induced metallic behavior without doping in ReO/FBiS2 suggests that the Fermi surface is located in the vicinity of some instability. Furthermore, notable properties under pressure in the BiS2 family are reported. The prospects for raising Tc in this family are proposed on the basis of experimental and theoretical studies.
