A fundamental issue concerning iron-based superconductivity is the roles of electronic nematicity and magnetism in realising high transition temperature (T c). To address this issue, FeSe is a key material, as it exhibits a unique pressure phase diagram involving non-magnetic nematic and pressure-induced antiferromagnetic ordered phases. However, as these two phases in FeSe have considerable overlap, how each order affects superconductivity remains perplexing. Here we construct the three-dimensional electronic phase diagram, temperature (T) against pressure (P) and isovalent S-substitution (x), for FeSe1−xSx. By simultaneously tuning chemical and physical pressures, against which the chalcogen height shows a contrasting variation, we achieve a complete separation of nematic and antiferromagnetic phases. In between, an extended non-magnetic tetragonal phase emerges, where T c shows a striking enhancement. The completed phase diagram uncovers that high-T c superconductivity lies near both ends of the dome-shaped antiferromagnetic phase, whereas T c remains low near the nematic critical point.

In most unconventional superconductors, the importance of antiferromagnetic fluctuations is widely acknowledged. In addition, cuprate and iron-pnictide high-temperature superconductors often exhibit unidirectional (nematic) electronic correlations, including stripe and orbital orders, whose fluctuations may also play a key role for electron pairing. In these materials, however, such nematic correlations are intertwined with antiferromagnetic or charge orders, preventing the identification of the essential role of nematic fluctuations. This calls for new materials having only nematicity without competing or coexisting orders. Here we report systematic elastoresistance measurements in FeSe 1−x S x superconductors, which, unlike other iron-based families, exhibit an electronic nematic order without accompanying antiferromagnetic order. We find that the nematic transition temperature decreases with sulfur content x; whereas, the nematic fluctuations are strongly enhanced. Near x ≈ 0.17, the nematic susceptibility diverges toward absolute zero, revealing a nematic quantum critical point. The obtained phase diagram for the nematic and superconducting states highlights FeSe 1−x S x as a unique nonmagnetic system suitable for studying the impact of nematicity on superconductivity.electronic nematicity | iron-based superconductors | nematic susceptibility | unconventional superconductivity | quantum critical point T he prime candidate for the unconventional mechanism of superconductivity in many strongly correlated electron systems including cuprate, iron-based, and heavy-fermion superconductors is based on magnetic fluctuations (1-4). In these materials, domeshaped superconducting phases appear in the vicinity of end point of the antiferromagnetic (AFM) order, where spin fluctuations are strongly enhanced. Recently, however, other competing or coexisting orders that break rotational symmetry of the system have been frequently found in these materials (5-8), and the importance of fluctuations of these orders on superconducting pairing has been suggested theoretically (9-12).In underdoped cuprate superconductors, unidirectional electronic correlations (stripe correlations) appear in the pseudogap state, whose relation with superconductivity is a center of debate. It has become more complicated after the charge density wave (CDW) order has been observed in a portion of this pseudogap region of the phase diagram (5). In iron pnictides, the tetragonal-toorthorhombic structural transition always precedes or coincides with the AFM transition (3). Below the structural transition temperature T s , electronic nematicity that represents a large electronic anisotropy breaking the C 4 rotational symmetry, is observed (7), which may have a similar aspect with the stripe correlations in underdoped cuprates. In both cases, however, the nematicity is largely coexisting and intertwined with other CDW and AFM orders. Large nematic fluctuations have been experimentally observed in BaFe 2 As 2 systems above T s , and these nematic fluctuati...

Hopping and band mobilities of holes in organic semiconductors at room temperature were estimated from first principle calculations. Relaxation times of charge carriers were evaluated using the acoustic deformation potential model. It is found that van der Waals interactions play an important role in determining accurate relaxation times. The hopping mobilities of pentacene, rubrene, and 2,7-dioctyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (C8-BTBT) in bulk single crystalline structures were found to be smaller than 4 cm(2)∕Vs, whereas the band mobilities were estimated between 36 and 58 cm(2)∕Vs, which are close to the maximum reported experimental values. This strongly suggests that band conductivity is dominant in these materials even at room temperature.
