Particularly superconductivity in AV_(3)Sb_(5) is significantly enhanced when this charge order is suppressed by pressure or doping. Distinct from magnetic order, loop-current order does not couple directly to spin and thus whether such fluctuations can enhance superconductivity remains elusive. We design a sign problem-free bilayer kagome model coupled to quantum Ising spins through bond currents and perform determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations to explore single-particle properties and superconductivity arising from 2 × 2 loopcurrent fluctuations. We find that this loop-current order induces intriguing band folding, band broadening,and gap opening around saddle points. Remarkably, our pairing susceptibility analysis identifies a dominant enhancement of superconductivity due to loop-current fluctuations, with the dominant pairing being the chiral d-wave channel. This pairing primarily occurs within the intra-sublattice channel and involves third nearestneighbor sites, attributed to the unique sublattice texture associated with van Hove singularities. We also discuss potential experimental implications for kagome superconductors.展开更多

However, the enhancement of Ising superconductivity is still a challenging problem, important for engineering Majorana fermions and exploring topological quantum computing. In this study, we investigated the superconducting properties of a series of van der Waals NbSe_(2-x)Te_(x) nanosheets. The Ising superconductivity in NbSe_(2-x)Te_(x) nanosheets can be significantly enhanced by the substitution of Te, an element with strong SOC. The fitted in-plane upper critical field of Nb Se_(1.5)Te_(0.5) nanosheets at absolute zero temperature reaches up to 3.2 times the Pauli limit. Angular dependence of magnetoresistance measurements reveals a distinct two-fold rotational symmetry in the superconducting transition region, highlighting the role of strong SOC. In addition, the fitting results of the Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless(BKT) transition and the two-dimensional(2D) Tinkham formula provide strong evidence for 2D superconductivity. These findings offer new perspectives for the design and modulation of the Ising superconducting state and pave the way for their potential applications in topological superconductivity and quantum technologies.展开更多
