Superconductivity enhancement in polar metal regions of Sr0.95Ba0.05TiO3 and Sr0.985Ca0.015TiO3 revealed by systematic Nb doping

Abstract Two different ferroelectric materials, Sr0.95Ba0.05TiO3 and Sr0.985Ca0.015TiO3, can be turned into polar metals with broken centrosymmetry via electron doping. Systematic substitution of Nb5+ for Ti4+ has revealed that these polar metals both commonly show a simple superconducting dome with...
