Abstract
- We examined the effect of Pb substitution in the layered superconductor LaO<subscript>0.5</subscript>F<subscript>0.5</subscript>Bi<subscript>1−</subscript><subscript>x</subscript>Pb<subscript>x</subscript>S<subscript>2</subscript> (x = 0–0.15) through the measurements of the resistivity, thermal expansion, specific heat, and Seebeck coefficient. These transport and thermal properties show anomalies at certain temperatures (T<superscript>*</superscript>) for x ≥ 0.08. The large thermal expansion anomalies, specific heat anomalies, and the existence of hystereses in the above measurements indicate a first-order structural phase transition at T<superscript>*</superscript>. Additionally, the Seebeck coefficient indicates that the anomalies at T<superscript>*</superscript> are related not only to the lattice system, but also to the electronic system. Superconductivity is not observed above 2 K at x = 0.08, which is around the phase boundary where T<superscript>*</superscript> vanishes. The suppression of superconductivity around the structural phase boundary suggests a close relationship between the lattice and superconductivity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
