Abstract

We succeed in enhancement of a superconducting transition temperature (T_c) for NdO_0.7F_0.3BiS₂ single crystal by partial substitution of Pb for Bi. The T_c increases with increasing Pb concentration until 6%. The maximum T_c^zero is 5.6 K, which is the highest value among BiS₂-based based superconductors synthesized under an ambient pressure. Pb substitution for Bi induces lattice shrinkage along the c-axis. These results reflect that superconductivity in this system is responsive to the lattice strain.
