摘要
We design a monolayer film of FeSe on SrTiO3(110) substrate [FeSe/STO(110)], with a C-2 symmetry induced by epitaxial strain. Compared to FeSe on SrTiO3(001) substrate [FeSe/STO(001)], one of the in-plane lattice constants is reduced by 6%, to similar to 3.67 angstrom. FeSe/STO(110) exhibits a large nearly isotropic superconducting gap of 16 meV filled around 60 K, similar to those obtained on FeSe/STO(001) films. Our results strongly suggest that the lattice C-4 symmetry is not essential for reaching high T-c's in Fe-based superconductors and pose a new challenge to theory.
