Here we report the first results of the high-pressure Hall coefficient (RH) measurements, combined with the high-pressure resistance measurements, at different temperatures on the putative topological superconductor FeTe0.55Se0.45. We find the intimate correlation of sign change of RH, a fingerprint to manifest the reconstruction of Fermi surface, with structural phase transition and superconductivity. Below the critical pressure (PC) of 2.7 GPa, our data reveal that the hole - electron carriers are thermally balanced (RH=0) at a critical temperature (T*), where RH changes its sign from positive to negative, and concurrently a tetragonal-orthorhombic phase transition takes place. Within the pressure range from 1bar to PC, T* is continuously suppressed by pressure, while TC increases monotonically. At about PC, T* is indistinguishable and TC reaches a maximum value. Moreover, a pressure-induced sign change of RH is found at ~PC where the orthorhombic-monoclinic phase transition occurs. With further compression, TC decreases and disappears at ~ 12 GPa. The correlation among the electron-hole balance, crystal structure and superconductivity found in the pressurized FeTe0.55Se0.45 implies that its nontrivial superconductivity is closely associated with its exotic normal state resulted from the interplay between the reconstruction of the Fermi surface and the change of the structural lattice.

Correlation between crystal structure and superconducting properties of the BiS2-based superconductor LaO0.5F0.5BiS2 was investigated. We have prepared LaO0.5F0.5BiS2 polycrystalline samples with various lattice constants. It was found that the annealing the sample under high pressure generated uniaxial strain along the c axis. Further, the highly-strained sample showed higher superconducting properties. We concluded that the uniaxial strain along the c axis was positively linked with the enhancement of superconductivity in the LaO1-xFxBiS2 system.
The resonance, a collective boson mode, was usually thought to be a possible glue of superconductivity. We argue that it is rather a natural product of the emph{d}-wave pairing and the Fermi surface topology. A universal scaling $E_{res}/2Delta ^{H}_{S}sim 1.0$ ($Delta_{S}^{H}$ the magnitude of superconducting gap at hot spot) is proposed for cuprates, irrespective of the hole-/electron-doping, low-/high-energy resonance, monotonic/nonmonotonic emph{d}-wave paring, and the parameters selected. We reveal that there may exist two resonance peaks in the electron-doped cuprates. The low- and high- energy resonance, originated from the contributions of the different intra-band component, is intimately associated with the Fermi surface topology. By analyzing the data of inelastic neutron scattering, we conclude the nonmonotonic emph{d}-wave superconducting pairing symmetry in the electron-doped cuprates, which is still an open question
The recent observation of quantum oscillations in underdoped high-Tc superconductors, combined with their negative Hall coefficient at low temperature, reveals that the Fermi surface of hole-doped cuprates includes a small electron pocket. This strongly suggests that the large hole Fermi surface characteristic of the overdoped regime undergoes a reconstruction caused by the onset of some order which breaks translational symmetry. Here we consider the possibility that this order is stripe order, a form of charge / spin modulation observed most clearly in materials like Eu-doped and Nd-doped LSCO. In these materials, the onset of stripe order is indeed the cause of Fermi-surface reconstruction. We identify the critical doping where this reconstruction occurs and show that the temperature dependence of transport coefficients at that doping is typical of metals at a quantum critical point. We discuss how the pseudogap phase may be a fluctuating precursor of the stripe-ordered phase.
We report Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillation measurements on FeSe under high pressure up to $P$ = 16.1 kbar. We find a sudden change in SdH oscillations at the onset of the pressure-induced antiferromagnetism at $P$ $sim$ 8 kbar. We argue that this change can be attributed to a reconstruction of the Fermi surface by the antiferromagnetic order. The negative d$T_c$/d$P$ observed in a range between $P$ $sim$ 8 and 12 kbar may be explained by the reduction in the density of states due to the reconstruction. The ratio of the transition temperature to the effective Fermi energy remains high under high pressure: $k_BT_c/E_F$ $sim$ 0.1 even at $P$ = 16.1 kbar.
Here, we report that K-doped BaMn2Bi2 shows no experimental evidence of superconductivity down to 1.5 K under pressures up to 35.6 GPa, however, a tetragonal to an orthorhombic phase transition is observed at pressure of 20 GPa. Theoretical calculations for the tetragonal and orthorhombic phases, on basis of our high-pressure XRD data, find that the AFM order is robust in both of the phases in pressurized Ba0.61K0.39Mn2Bi2. Our experimental and theoretical results suggest that the K-doped BaMn2Bi2 belongs to a strong Hunds AFM metal with a hybridization of localized spin electrons and itinerant electrons, and that its robust AFM order essentially prevents the emergence of superconductivity.
