We report the first nitrogen-containing iron-pnictide superconductor ThFeAsN, which is synthesized by a solid-state reaction in an evacuated container. The compound crystallizes in a ZrCuSiAs-type structure with the space group P4/nmm and lattice parameters a=4.0367(1) {AA} and c=8.5262(2) {AA} at 300 K. The electrical resistivity and dc magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate superconductivity at 30 K for the nominally undoped ThFeAsN.

A new iron pnictide LiFeP superconductor was found. The compound crystallizes into a Cu2Sb structure containing an FeP layer showing superconductivity with maximum Tc of 6K. This is the first 111 type iron pnictide superconductor containing no arseni c. The new superconductor is featured with itinerant behavior at normal state that could helpful to understand the novel superconducting mechanism of iron pnictide compounds.
The recently synthesized ThFeAsN iron-pnictide superconductor exhibits a $T_c$ of 30 K, the highest of the 1111-type series in absence of chemical doping. To understand how pressure affects its electronic properties, we carried out microscopic invest igations up to 3 GPa via magnetization, nuclear magnetic resonance, and muon-spin rotation experiments. The temperature dependence of the ${}^{75}$As Knight shift, the spin-lattice relaxation rates, and the magnetic penetration depth suggest a multi-band $s^{pm}$-wave gap symmetry in the dirty limit, while the gap-to-$T_c$ ratio $Delta/k_mathrm{B}T_c$ hints at a strong-coupling scenario. Pressure modulates the geometrical parameters, thus reducing $T_c$, as well as $T_m$, the temperature where magnetic-relaxation rates are maximized, both at the same rate of approximately -1.1 K/GPa. This decrease of $T_c$ with pressure is consistent with band-structure calculations, which relate it to the deformation of the Fe 3$d_{z^2}$ orbitals.

We report the discovery of a new noncentrosymmetric superconductor CaPtAs. It crystallizes in a tetragonal structure (space group $I4_1md$, No.109), featuring three dimensional honeycomb networks of Pt-As and a much elongated $c$-axis ($a = b = 4.18 $ AA, and $c = 43.70 $ AA). The superconductivity of CaPtAs with $T_c$ = 1.47 K was characterized by means of electrical resistivity, specific heat, and ac magnetic susceptibility. The electronic specific heat $C_mathrm{e}(T)/T$ shows evidence for a deviation from the behavior of a conventional BCS superconductor, and can be reasonably fitted by a $p$-wave model. The upper critical field $mu_0H_{c2}$ of CaPtAs exhibits a relatively large anisotropy, with an in-plane value of around 204 mT and an out-of-plane value of 148 mT. Density functional theory calculations indicate that the Pt-5$d$ and As-4$p$ orbitals mainly contribute to the density of states near the Fermi level, showing that the Pt-As honeycomb networks may significantly influence the superconducting properties.
We investigate theoretically the superconducting state of the undoped Fe-based superconductor ThFeAsN. Using input from $ab~initio$ calculations, we solve the Fermi-surface based, multichannel Eliashberg equations for Cooper-pair formation mediated b y spin and charge fluctuations, and by the electron-phonon interaction (EPI). Our results reveal that spin fluctuations alone, when coupling only hole-like with electron-like energy bands, can account for a critical temperature $T_c$ up to $sim7.5,mathrm{K}$ with an $s_{pm}$-wave superconducting gap symmetry, which is a comparatively low $T_c$ with respect to the experimental value $T_c^{mathrm{exp}}=30,mathrm{K}$. Other combinations of interaction kernels (spin, charge, electron-phonon) lead to a suppression of $T_c$ due to phase frustration of the superconducting gap. We qualitatively argue that the missing ingredient to explain the gap magnitude and $T_c$ in this material is the first-order correction to the EPI vertex. In the noninteracting state this correction adopts a form supporting the $s_{pm}$ gap symmetry, in contrast to EPI within Migdals approximation, i.e., EPI without vertex correction, and therefore it enhances tendencies arising from spin fluctuations.
We report on the structure and physical properties of bulk Palladium Tellurium superconductor, which is synthesized via quartz vacuum encapsulation technique at 750 C. The as synthesized compound is crystallized in hexagonal crystal structure. Magnet ization and Magneto-transport measurements provided the values of lower and upper critical field to be 250 and 1200 Gauss respectively at 2 Kelvin. The Coherence length and GL parameter are estimated from the experimentally determined upper and lower critical fields, which are 45 nm and 1.48 respectively. The jump in Cp(T) at Tc is found to be 1.33 and the Debye temperature and electronic specific heat constant are 203 Kelvin and 6.01mJ/mole-K2 respectively.
