摘要
The temperature evolution of the upper critical field Hc2(T) in the noncentrosymmetric superconductor PbTaSe2 was determined via resistivity measurements down to 0.5 K. A pronounced positive curvature in the Hc2-T phase diagram was observed in the whole temperature range below Tc. The Seebeck coefficient S(T) in the temperature range 5K ≤ T ≤ 350 K was found to be negative in sign, modest in magnitude and non-linear in temperature. In addition, the superconducting transition temperature Tc under hydrostatic pressure shows a marked non-monotonic variation, decreasing initially with the applied pressure up to Pc ∼5–10 kbar but then rising with further pressurization. The underlying physical mechanisms of all these findings have been discussed.
