Our recent observation of SC at 6.1 K in correlated electron material K2Cr3As3 represents an obviously different paradigm,primarily because of its quasi-one-dimensional(Q1D) nature. The new material is structurally featured by the [(Cr3As3)2-]∞ double-walled subnano-tubes composed of face-sharing Cr6/2(As6/2) octahedron linear chains,which are well separated by the columns of K+ counterions. Later,an isostructural superconducting Rb2Cr3As3 was synthesized,thus forming a new superconducting family. Here we report the third member,Cs2Cr3As3,which possesses the largest interchain distance. SC appears below 2.2 K. Similar to the former two sister compounds,Cs2Cr3As3 exhibits a non-Fermi liquid behavior with a linear temperature dependence of resistivity in the normal state,and a high upper critical field beyond the Pauli limit as well,suggesting a common unconventional SC in the Q1 D Cr-based material.展开更多

Here we report the crystal structure and physical properties of two related materials ACr3As3(A = Rb, Cs) which are synthesized via a soft-chemical A+ deintercalation in A2Cr3As3. The new compounds remain one-dimensional(Cr3As3)∞ linear chains, and the interchain distance can be tuned by the incorporation of the alkali-metal cations with different sizes. The physical property measurements indicate a local-moment behavior at high temperatures, and the moments freeze into a cluster spin-glass state below 5–6 K. No superconductivity was observed in both materials. We also found that, with increasing the interchain distance, the Cr effective moments increase monotonically, accompanied with the enhancement of semi-conductivity. Our results shed light on the understanding of occurrence of superconductivity in A2Cr3As3.展开更多
