Inducing or enhancing superconductivity in topological materials is an important route toward topological superconductivity. Reducing the thickness of transition metal dichalcogenides (e.g. WTe2 and MoTe2) has provided an important pathway to engineer superconductivity in topological matters. However, such monolayer sample is difficult to obtain, unstable in air, and with extremely low Tc. Here we report an experimentally convenient approach to control the interlayer coupling to achieve tailored topological properties, enhanced superconductivity and good sample stability through organic-cation intercalation of the Weyl semimetals MoTe2 and WTe2. The as-formed organic-inorganic hybrid crystals are weak topological insulators with enhanced Tc of 7.0 K for intercalated MoTe2 (0.25 K for pristine crystal) and 2.3 K for intercalated WTe2 (2.8 times compared to monolayer WTe2). Such organic-cation intercalation method can be readily applied to many other layered crystals, providing a new pathway for manipulating their electronic, topological and superconducting properties.

增强有机-无机杂化拓扑材料的超导性

在拓扑材料中诱导或增强超导性是实现拓扑超导的重要途径。降低过渡金属二硫化物(例如 WTe 2和 MoTe 2)的厚度为在拓扑物质中设计超导性提供了重要途径。然而,这种单层样品获取困难,在空气中不稳定, Tc极低。在这里,我们报告了一种通过实验方便的方法来控制层间耦合,以通过有机阳离子插层 Weyl 半金属 MoTe 2和 WTe 2实现定制的拓扑特性、增强的超导性和良好的样品稳定性. 形成的有机-无机杂化晶体是弱拓扑绝缘体,插层 MoTe 2 的 T c 增强7.0 K(原始晶体为 0.25 K),插层 WTe 2为 2.3 K (是单层 WTe 2的 2.8 倍)。这种有机阳离子嵌入方法可以很容易地应用于许多其他层状晶体,为操纵它们的电子、拓扑和超导特性提供了一条新途径。
