Abstract

We report the results of electrical and magnetic properties on a series of KxFe2−yS2 (x = 1, 0.8, y = 0.1–0.5) single crystals. KFe1.5S2 exhibits a semiconductor electrical property and undergoes an antiferromagnetic transition at about 43 K. Superconductivity was not found by only varying iron concentrations. However, codoping with iron and selenium in KFe1.5S2 can successfully induce superconductivity at 26 K. The experimental data provide evidence that the chemical pressure and disorder scattering may be responsible for the emergence of superconductivity.
