We report the synthesis of tetragonal $mathrm{FeS}_xmathrm{Se}_{1-x}$ films ($x leq 0.78$) by pulsed-laser deposition. To fabricate the tetragonal alloy films with tetragonal FeSe and hexagonal FeS targets, we adopted an alternate deposition technique with FeSe buffer layer on MgO(001). The overall film composition is controlled by the thickness ratio of FeS / FeSe layers. The out-of-plane lattice parameter of the films follows Vegards law, demonstrating homogeneous alloying by inter-diffusion. The sulfur solid solubility reaches $x = 0.78$ in the $mathrm{FeS}_xmathrm{Se}_{1-x}$ films, which is by far larger than $x approx 0.40$ in bulk governed by the tetragonal phase instability.

We report the successful growth of epitaxial thin films of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ with $x leq 0.43$ via pulsed laser deposition. As S content increases, the nematic transition temperature, $T_{mathrm s}$, decreases systematically and the superconducting t
ransition temperature, $T_{mathrm c}$, shows a gradual decrease even when $x$ exceeds the nematic end point (NEP), similar to bulk samples. A new kink anomaly was observed in the $rho$-$T$ curves for films with large $x$, which is likely due to a magnetic transition. The obtained phase diagram of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ thin films is in contrast to that of FeSe$_{1-y}$Te$_y$ films, which shows a rapid increase of $T_{mathrm c}$ at the NEP. Our results demonstrate that the relation between the nematic order and the superconductivity is not universal in the FeSe system, suggesting that the nematic transition does not play a primary role in the superconductivity in these materials.
Pulsed laser deposition, a non-equilibrium thin-film growth technique, was used to stabilize metastable tetragonal iron sulfide (FeS), the bulk state of which is known as a superconductor with a critical temperature of 4 K. Comprehensive experiments
revealed four important factors to stabilize tetragonal FeS epitaxial thin films: (i) an optimum growth temperature of 300 {deg}C followed by thermal quenching, (ii) an optimum growth rate of ~7 nm/min, (iii) use of a high-purity bulk target, and (iv) use of a single-crystal substrate with small in-plane lattice mismatch (CaF2). Electrical resistivity measurements indicated that none of all the films exhibited superconductivity. Although an electric double-layer transistor structure was fabricated using the tetragonal FeS epitaxial film as a channel layer to achieve high-density carrier doping, no phase transition was observed. Possible reasons for the lack of superconductivity include lattice strain, off-stoichiometry of the film, electrochemical etching by the ionic liquid under gate bias, and surface degradation during device fabrication.
A huge enhancement of the superconducting transition temperature Tc was observed in tetragonal FeSe superconductor under high pressure. The onset temperature became as high as 27 K at 1.48 GPa and the pressure coefficient showed a huge value of 9.1 K
/GPa. The upper critical field Hc2 was estimated to be ~ 72 T at 1.48 GPa. Because of the high Hc2, FeSe system may be a candidate for application as superconducting wire rods. Moreover, the investigation of superconductivity on simple structured FeSe may provide important clues to the mechanism of superconductivity in iron-based superconductors.
As the simplest iron-based superconductor, FeSe forms a tetragonal structure with transition temperature Tc ~ 8 K. With assistance of pressure, or other techniques, Tc can be greatly enhanced, even to above liquid nitrogen temperature. The newly disc
overed superconducting tetragonal FeS (Tc ~ 4.5 K), a sulfide counterpart of FeSe, promotes us on its high pressure investigation. The transport and structure evolution of FeS with pressure have been studied. A rapid suppression of Tc and vanishing of superconductivity at 4.0 GPa are observed, followed by a second superconducting dome with a 30% enhancement in maximum Tc. An onsite tetragonal to hexagonal phase transition occurs around 7.0 GPa, followed by a broad pressure range of phase coexistence. The residual deformed tetragonal phase is considered as the source of second superconducting dome. The observation of two superconducting domes in iron-based superconductors poses great challenges for understanding their pairing mechanism.
There is an ongoing debate about the relative importance of structural change versus doping charge carriers on the mechanism of superconductivity in Fe-based materials. Elucidating this issue is a major challenge since it would require a large number
of samples where structure properties or the carrier density is systematically varied. FeSe, with its structural simplicity, is an ideal platform for addressing this question. It has been demonstrated that the superconductivity in this material can be controlled through crystal lattice tuning, as well as electronic structure manipulation. Here, we apply a high-throughput methodology to FeSe to systematically delineate the interdependence of its structural and electronic properties. Using a dual-beam pulsed laser deposition, we have generated FeSe films with a marked gradient in the superconducting transition temperature (below 2 K < Tc < 12 K) across 1 cm width of the films. The Tc gradient films display ~ 1% continuous stretch and compression in the out-of-plane and in-plane lattice constants respectively, triggering the continuous enhancement of superconductivity. Combining transport and angular-resolved photoemission measurements on uniform FeSe films with tunable Tc from 3 K to 14 K, we find that the electron carrier density is intimately correlated with Tc, i.e., it increases by a factor of 6 and ultimately surpasses the almost constant hole concentration. Our transmission electron microscope and band structure calculations reveal that rather than by shifting the chemical potential, the enhanced superconductivity is linked to the selective adjustment of the dxy band dispersion across the Fermi level by means of reduced local lattice distortions. Therefore, such novel mechanism provides a key to understand discrete superconducting phases in FeSe.
